[PATCH 1/1] cifs: potential memory leaks when parsing mnt opts

[Taesoo Kim <tsgatesv@gmail.com>]

For example, when mount opt is redundently specified
(e.g., "user=A,user=B,user=C"), kernel kept allocating new key/val
with kstrdup() and overwrite previous ptr (to be freed).

Althouhg mkfs.cifs in userspace performs a bit of sanitization
(e.g., forcing one user option), current implementation is not
robust. Other options such as iocharset and domainanme are similary
vulnerable.
