cifs: don't take extra tlink reference in initiate_cifs_search

Browse source

It's possible for initiate_cifs_search to be called on a filp that
already has private_data attached. If this happens, we'll end up
calling cifs_sb_tlink, taking an extra reference to the tlink and
attaching that to the cifsFileInfo. This leads to refcount leaks
that manifest as a "stuck" cifsd at umount time.

Fix this by only looking up the tlink for the cifsFile on the filp's
first pass through this function. When called on a filp that already
has cifsFileInfo associated with it, just use the tlink reference
that it already owns.
