[ Upstream commit dad80c6bff770d25f67ec25fe011730e4a463008 ]
During mount, cifs_mount_get_tcon() gets a tcon resource connection record
and then attaches an fscache volume cookie to it. However, it does this
irrespective of whether or not the tcon returned from cifs_get_tcon() is a
new record or one that's already in use. This leads to a warning about a
volume cookie collision and a leaked volume cookie because tcon->fscache
gets reset.
Fix this be adding a mutex and a "we've already tried this" flag and only
doing it once for the lifetime of the tcon.
[!] Note: Looking at cifs_mount_get_tcon(), a more general solution may
actually be required. Reacquiring the volume cookie isn't the only thing
that function does: it also partially reinitialises the tcon record without
any locking - which may cause live filesystem ops already using the tcon
through a previous mount to malfunction.
This can be reproduced simply by something like:
mount //example.com/test /xfstest.test -o user=shares,pass=xxx,fsc
mount //example.com/test /mnt -o user=shares,pass=xxx,fsc

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.
