ksmbd: fix mechToken leak when SPNEGO decode fails after token alloc

Browse Source 
The kernel ASN.1 BER decoder calls action callbacks incrementally as it
walks the input.  When ksmbd_decode_negTokenInit() reaches the mechToken
[2] OCTET STRING element, ksmbd_neg_token_alloc() allocates
conn->mechToken immediately via kmemdup_nul().  If a later element in
the same blob is malformed, then the decoder will return nonzero after
the allocation is already live.  This could happen if mechListMIC [3]
overrunse the enclosing SEQUENCE.

decode_negotiation_token() then sets conn->use_spnego = false because
both the negTokenInit and negTokenTarg grammars failed.  The cleanup at
the bottom of smb2_sess_setup() is gated on use_spnego:

	if (conn->use_spnego && conn->mechToken) {
		kfree(conn->mechToken);
		conn->mechToken = NULL;
	}

so the kfree is skipped, causing the mechToken to never be freed.

This codepath is reachable pre-authentication, so untrusted clients can
cause slow memory leaks on a server without even being properly
authenticated.

Fix this up by not checking check for use_spnego, as it's not required,
so the memory will always be properly freed.  At the same time, always
free the memory in ksmbd_conn_free() incase some other failure path
forgot to free it.
