Pull smb client fixes from Paulo Alcantara:
- Fix leaked server handles and dropped errors in the SMB2 compound
create path: a parsing error reported as success, an earlier CREATE
left open when a later command fails, the cached directory open
losing the FID needed for cleanup, and SMB2_open() not closing the
handle after a create-context parse failure
- Fix out-of-bounds reads when parsing create contexts from a
malicious server: bound each context by its Next field, parse the
lease and QFid contexts from their declared offsets and validate
the POSIX create context length
- Fix a double credit decrement, and its warning, when a compound
send fails and triggers a reconnect; found by syzbot
- Fix a dentry and server handle leak in cifs_atomic_open() when an
O_CREAT open resolves to a symlink or other non-regular inode
- Use GFP_KERNEL in the DFS get_targets() path
- Minor update to the POSIX extension specification references
