Subject: cifs: initialize file_info_lock

From: Rabin Vincent <rabinv@axis.com>

commit 81ddd8c0c5e1cb41184d66567140cb48c53eb3d1 upstream.

Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

file_info_lock is not initalized in initiate_cifs_search(), leading to the
following splat after a simple "mount.cifs ... dir && ls dir/":
