Subject: [PATCH] cifs: fix GlobalMid_Lock bug in cifs_reconnect
Git-commit: 61cabc7b0a5cf0d3c532cfa96594c801743fe7f6
Patch-mainline: v5.2-rc6
References: bsc#1144333

We can not hold the GlobalMid_Lock spinlock during the
dfs processing in cifs_reconnect since it invokes things that may sleep
and thus trigger :

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/rwsem.c:23

Thus we need to drop the spinlock during this code block.
