CVE-2025-37954

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: client: Avoid race in opencacheddir with lease breaks

A pre-existing valid cfid returned from findorcreatecacheddir might race with a lease break, meaning opencacheddir doesn't consider it valid, and thinks it's newly-constructed. This leaks a dentry reference if the allocation occurs before the queued lease break work runs.

Avoid the race by extending holding the cfidlistlock across findorcreatecacheddir and when the result is checked.
