Fedor Pchelkin 0c578e8065 ksmbd: call ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_end_removing() on some error paths 
[ Upstream commit a09dc10d13 ]

There are two places where ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_end_removing() needs to be
called in order to balance what the corresponding successful call to
ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_start_removing() has done, i.e. drop inode locks and
put the taken references.  Otherwise there might be potential deadlocks
and unbalanced locks which are caught like:

BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic: kworker/5:21/0x00000000/7596
     last function: handle_ksmbd_work
2 locks held by kworker/5:21/7596:

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
