ksmbd: centralize ksmbd_conn final release to plug transport leak

ksmbd_conn_free() is one of four sites that can observe the last
refcount drop of a struct ksmbd_conn.  The other three

    fs/smb/server/connection.c    ksmbd_conn_r_count_dec()
    fs/smb/server/oplock.c        __free_opinfo()
    fs/smb/server/vfs_cache.c     session_fd_check()

end the conn with a bare kfree(), skipping
ida_destroy(&conn->async_ida) and
conn->transport->ops->free_transport(conn->transport).  Whenever one
of them is the last putter, the embedded async_ida and the entire
transport struct leak -- for TCP, that is also the struct socket and
the kvec iov.

__free_opinfo() being a final putter is not theoretical.  opinfo_put()
queues the callback via call_rcu(&opinfo->rcu, free_opinfo_rcu), so
ksmbd_server_terminate_conn() can deposit N opinfo releases in RCU and
have ksmbd_conn_free() run in the handler thread before any of them
fire.  ksmbd_conn_free() then observes refcnt > 0 and short-circuits;
the last RCU-delivered __free_opinfo() falls onto its bare kfree(conn)
branch and the transport is lost.

A/B validation in a QEMU/virtme guest, mounting //127.0.0.1/testshare:
each iteration holds 8 files open via sleep processes, force-closes
TCP with "ss -K sport = :445", kills the holders, lazy-umounts;
repeated 10 times, then ksmbd shutdown and kmemleak scan.

    state         conn_alloc  conn_free  tcp_free  opi_rcu  kmemleak
    ----------    ----------  ---------  --------  -------  --------
    pre-patch         20          20        10       160        7
    with patch        20          20        20       160        0

Pre-patch conn_free=20 with tcp_free=10 directly demonstrates the
bare-kfree paths skipping transport cleanup; kmemleak backtraces point
into struct tcp_transport / iov.  With this patch tcp_free matches
conn_free at 20/20 and kmemleak is clean.

Move the per-struct final release into __ksmbd_conn_release_work() and
route the three bare-kfree final-put sites through a new
ksmbd_conn_put().  Those sites now pair ida_destroy() and
free_transport() with kfree(conn) regardless of which holder happens
to release the last reference.  stop_sessions() only triggers the
transport shutdown and does not itself drop the last conn reference,
so it is unaffected.

The centralized release reaches sock_release() -> tcp_close() ->
lock_sock_nested() (might_sleep) from every final putter, including
__free_opinfo() invoked from an RCU softirq callback, which trips
CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP.  Defer the release to a dedicated
ksmbd_conn_wq workqueue so ksmbd_conn_put() is safe from any
non-sleeping context.

Make ksmbd_file own a strong connection reference while fp->conn is
non-NULL so durable-preserve and final-close paths cannot dereference
a stale connection.  ksmbd_open_fd() and ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd()
take the reference via ksmbd_conn_get() (the latter also reorders the
fp->conn / fp->tcon assignments before __open_id() so the published fp
is never observed with fp->conn == NULL); session_fd_check() and
__ksmbd_close_fd() drop it via ksmbd_conn_put().  With that invariant,
session_fd_check() can take a local conn pointer once and use it
across the m_op_list and lock_list iterations even though op->conn
puts may otherwise drop the last reference.

At module exit the workqueue is flushed and destroyed after
rcu_barrier(), so any release queued by a trailing RCU callback is
drained before the inode hash and module text go away.
