commit 6284e46bdd47743a064fe6ac834a7ac05b1fd206 upstream.
Use DFS root session whenever possible to get new DFS referrals otherwise we might end up with an IPC tcon (tcon->ses->tcon_ipc) that doesn't respond to them. It should be safe accessing @ses->dfs_root_ses directly in cifs_inval_name_dfs_link_error() as it has same lifetime as of @tcon.
