cifs: fix dereference on ses before it is null checked
The assignment of pointer server dereferences pointer ses, however, this dereference occurs before ses is null checked and hence we have a potential null pointer dereference. Fix this by only dereferencing ses after it has been null checked. Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check") Fixes: 2808c6639104 ("cifs: add new debugging macro cifs_server_dbg") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com>
