Shyam Prasad N 30aae98b75 cifs: do not depend on release_iface for maintaining iface_list
commit 09eeb0723f upstream.

parse_server_interfaces should be in complete charge of maintaining
the iface_list linked list. Today, iface entries are removed
from the list only when the last refcount is dropped.
i.e. in release_iface. However, this can result in undercounting
of refcount if the server stops advertising interfaces (which
Azure SMB server does).

This change puts parse_server_interfaces in full charge of
maintaining the iface_list. So if an empty list is returned
by the server, the entries in the list will immediately be
removed. This way, a following call to the same function will
not find entries in the list.

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 Restructured Text 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.
