Hello,

CIFS cleanup_volume_info_contents() looks like having a memory
corruption problem.
When UNCip is set to "&vol->UNC[2]" in cifs_parse_mount_options(), it
should not be kfree()-ed in cleanup_volume_info_contents().

If it is correct and the code in mainline is not fixed yet, then here is
a patch.

Looks correct, nice catch.

Also, this patch should obviously go to stable too.
