The plaintext unknown-frame path in cifs_demultiplex_thread() already reclaims them with smb2_add_credits_from_hdr(), so encrypted reads leak credits that the plaintext path would not. This also happens for legitimate frames - e.g. a reply that arrives after the client has timed out and dropped the mid - so over a long-lived connection the client's credit count drifts down and can eventually starve it of the ability to issue requests. The frame is AEAD-authenticated, so the granted credits in the decrypted header come from the real server and are safe to apply. Reclaim the credits from the decrypted header before dropping the frame, and export smb2_add_credits_from_hdr() so the SMB2 receive paths can use it.
