cifs: Fix null-ptr-deref by static initializing global lock
A kernel panic can be triggered by reading /proc/fs/cifs/debug_dirs.
The crash is a null-ptr-deref inside spin_lock(), caused by the use of the
uninitialized global spinlock cifs_tcp_ses_lock.

└── // User can access /proc/fs/cifs/debug_dirs here
└── cifs_debug_dirs_proc_show()
└── spin_lock(&cifs_tcp_ses_lock); // Uninitialized!

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
The root cause is an initialization order problem. The lock is declared
as a global variable and intended to be initialized during module startup.
However, the procfs entry that uses this lock can be accessed by userspace
before the spin_lock_init() call has run. This creates a race window where
reading the proc file will attempt to use the lock before it is
initialized, leading to the crash.
For a global lock with a static lifetime, the correct and robust approach
is to use compile-time initialization.
