Subject: [PATCH] CIFS: Fix task struct use-after-free on reconnect

The task which created the MID may be gone by the time cifsd attempts to
call the callbacks on MIDs from cifs_reconnect().

This leads to a use-after-free of the task struct in cifs_wake_up_task:

 ==================================================================

This can be reliably reproduced by adding the below delay to
cifs_reconnect(), running find(1) on the mount, restarting the samba
server while find is running, and killing find during the delay:

  	spin_unlock(&GlobalMid_Lock);
  	mutex_unlock(&server->srv_mutex);

 +	msleep(10000);
 +
  	cifs_dbg(FYI, "%s: issuing mid callbacks\n", __func__);
  	list_for_each_safe(tmp, tmp2, &retry_list) {
  		mid_entry = list_entry(tmp, struct mid_q_entry, qhead);

Fix this by holding a reference to the task struct until the MID is
freed.
