cifs: don't dereference smb_file_target before null check
There is a null check on dst_file->private data which suggests it can be potentially null. However, before this check, pointer smb_file_target is derived from dst_file->private and dereferenced in the call to tlink_tcon, hence there is a potential null pointer deference. Fix this by assigning smb_file_target and target_tcon after the null pointer sanity checks. Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1475302 ("Dereference before null check") Fixes: 04b38d601239 ("vfs: pull btrfs clone API to vfs layer") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com>
