Subject: [PATCH V2 1/2] smb: client: Fix use-after-free in cifs_fill_dirent

There is a race condition in the readdir concurrency process, which may
access the rsp buffer after it has been released, triggering the
following KASAN warning.

Fix this by ensuring the return code is checked before using pointers
from the srch_inf.
