[PATCH][cifs-next] cifs: fix dereference on ses before it is null checked

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The assignment of pointer server dereferences pointer ses, however,
this dereference occurs before ses is null checked and hence we
have a potential null pointer dereference.  Fix this by only
dereferencing ses after it has been null checked.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: 2808c6639104 ("cifs: add new debugging macro cifs_server_dbg")
