From: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com> [ Upstream commit 247bc9470b1eeefc7b58cdf2c39f2866ba651509 ] Fixes: 72abe3bcf091 ("signal/cifs: Fix cifs_put_tcp_session to call send_sig instead of force_sig") The global change from force_sig caused module unloading of cifs.ko to fail (since the cifsd process could not be killed, "rmmod cifs" now would always fail) Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: Ronnie Sahlberg <lsahlber@redhat.com> CC: Eric W.
