[Fix]

* Jammy: backport of 3ca02e63edcc: "smb: client: Avoid race in open_cached_dir with lease breaks" upstream

[Test Plan]

* Compile tested

[Regression potential]

* Changes are localized to CIFS/SMB and already upstream. Possible regressions could result in unexpected behavior of CIFS driver.

[Other info]
