cifs: reinstate sharing of SMB sessions sans races
We do this by abandoning the global list of SMB sessions and instead moving to a per-server list. This entails adding a new list head to the TCP_Server_Info struct. The refcounting for the cifsSesInfo is moved to a non-atomic variable. We have to protect it by a lock anyway, so there's no benefit to making it an atomic. The list and refcount are protected by the global cifs_tcp_ses_lock. The patch also adds a new routines to find and put SMB sessions and that properly take and put references under the lock.
