Public bug reported:

SRU Justification

[Impact]

A Microsoft customer is reporting a kernel oops when attempting a DFS
connection.

[Fix]

a52930353eaf443489a350a135c5525a4acbbf56 cifs: handle empty list of targets in 
cifs_reconnect()
baf3f08ef4083b76ca67b143e135213a7f941879 cifs: get rid of unused parameter in 
reconn_setup_dfs_targets()

The addition of these 2 patches has been confirmed to prevent the oops.

[Test Case]

Mount a Windows DFS share

[Where problems could occur]

Mounts could continue to fail even though the kernel no longer crashes.
