cifs: fix crash due to race in hmac(md5) handling
The secmech hmac(md5) structures are present in the TCP_Server_Info
struct and can be shared among multiple CIFS sessions. However, the
server mutex is not currently held when these structures are allocated
and used, which can lead to a kernel crashes, as in the scenario below:
mount.cifs(8) #1 mount.cifs(8) #2
Is secmech.sdeschmaccmd5 allocated?
// false
Is secmech.sdeschmaccmd5 allocated?
// false
secmech.hmacmd = crypto_alloc_shash..
secmech.sdeschmaccmd5 = kzalloc..
sdeschmaccmd5->shash.tfm = &secmec.hmacmd;
secmech.sdeschmaccmd5 = kzalloc
// sdeschmaccmd5->shash.tfm
// not yet assigned
crypto_shash_update()
deref NULL sdeschmaccmd5->shash.tfm
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00000030

Fix this by locking the srv_mutex around the code which uses these
hmac(md5) structures. All the other secmech algos already have similar
locking.
