cifs: fix potential deadlock in cache_refresh_path()
Avoid getting DFS referral from an exclusive lock in
cache_refresh_path() because the tcon IPC used for getting the
referral could be disconnected and thus causing a deadlock as shown
below:
task A task B
====== ======
cifs_demultiplex_thread() dfs_cache_find()
cifs_handle_standard() cache_refresh_path()
reconnect_dfs_server() down_write()
dfs_cache_noreq_find() get_dfs_referral()
down_read() <- deadlock smb2_get_dfs_refer()
SMB2_ioctl()
cifs_send_recv()
compound_send_recv()
wait_for_response()
where task A cannot wake up task B because it is blocked on
down_read() due to the exclusive lock held in cache_refresh_path() and
therefore not being able to make progress.
