cifs: fix use-after-free caused by invalid pointer hostname
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
`hostname` needs to be set as null-pointer after free in
`cifs_put_tcp_session` function, or when `cifsd` thread attempts
to resolve hostname and reconnect the host, the thread would deref
the invalid pointer.

Here is one of practical backtrace examples as reference:
