[PATCH 5.15 24/39] smb: server: fix leak of active_num_conn in ksmbd_tcp_new_connection()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

5.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Henrique Carvalho <henrique.carvalho@suse.com>

[ Upstream commit 77ffbcac4e569566d0092d5f22627dfc0896b553 ]

On kthread_run() failure in ksmbd_tcp_new_connection(), the transport is
freed via free_transport(), which does not decrement active_num_conn,
leaking this counter.

Replace free_transport() with ksmbd_tcp_disconnect().

Fixes: 0d0d4680db22e ("ksmbd: add max connections parameter")
