cifs_try_adding_channels() takes a temporary reference to an interface
before dropping iface_lock. If cifs_ses_add_channel() fails, it drops
that reference and then increments iface->weight_fulfilled.
A concurrent interface list refresh can remove the list reference while
channel creation is in progress. In that case, the failure-path
kref_put() releases the last reference and frees iface. Updating
weight_fulfilled afterward then accesses freed memory.
Increment weight_fulfilled before dropping the temporary reference,
keeping iface alive for the final access.
