[PATCH 2/2] smb: client: skip NULL channel in __cifs_put_smb_ses()

[Joseph Qi <joseph.qi@linux.alibaba.com>]

cifs_chan_skip_or_disable() clears a secondary channel's slot in the
session (ses->chans[chan_index].server = NULL) without lowering
chan_count when the server stops supporting multichannel.  When the
session is later released, __cifs_put_smb_ses() walks every slot up to
chan_count and calls cifs_put_tcp_session() on it, which dereferences
the server pointer immediately, so a slot left NULL by the skip path
makes the release crash with a NULL pointer dereference.

Clearing a slot without lowering chan_count is older than
cifs_chan_skip_or_disable(): cifs_chan_update_iface() could already
do the same since b54034a73baf9 ("cifs: during reconnect, update
interface if necessary"), and the release loop has been unguarded
since then.  12d1e301bdfd1 ("cifs: do not let cifs_chan_update_iface
deallocate channels") later removed that trigger, but the crash is
reachable through it on older kernels.

cifs_decrease_secondary_channels() already guards the same put with
if (server).  Add the same guard to the release loop so a skipped
channel slot is left alone.

Fixes: b54034a73baf9 ("cifs: during reconnect, update interface if necessary")
