Description

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

smb: client: fix warning when reconnecting channel

When reconnecting a channel in smb2_reconnect_server(), a dummy tcon
is passed down to smb2_reconnect() with ->query_interface
uninitialized, so we can't call queue_delayed_work() on it.

Fix the following warning by ensuring that we're queueing the delayed
worker from correct tcon.
