[PATCH] cifs: remove unnecessary copies of tcon->crfid.fid

From: Muhammad Usama Anjum
Date: Tue Apr 13 2021 - 19:26:10 EST


pfid is being set to tcon->crfid.fid and they are copied in each other
multiple times. Remove the memcopy between same pointers.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Overlapped copy")
Fixes: 9e81e8ff74b9 ("cifs: return cached_fid from open_shroot")

I'm not sure why refcount was being incremented here. This file has been
evoloved so much. Any ideas?
