cifs: Check for existing directory when opening file with O_CREAT
commit 8d9535b6 upstream. When opening a file with O_CREAT flag, check to see if the file opened is an existing directory. This prevents the directory from being opened which subsequently causes a crash when the close function for directories cifs_closedir() is called which frees up the file->private_data memory while the file is still listed on the open file list for the tcon.
