Subject: ceph: fix potential race in ceph_check_caps
Git-commit: dc3da0461cc4b76f2d0c5b12247fcb3b520edbbf
Patch-mainline: v5.8-rc1
References: bsc#1205906

Nothing ensures that session will still be valid by the time we
dereference the pointer. Take and put a reference.

In principle, we should always be able to get a reference here, but
throw a warning if that's ever not the case.
