[PATCH] cifs: properly invalidate cached root handle when closing it

Cached root file was not being completely invalidated sometimes.

Reproducing:
- With a DFS share with 2 targets, one disabled and one enabled
- start some I/O on the mount
  # while true; do ls /mnt/dfs; done
- at the same time, disable the enabled target and enable the disabled
  one
- wait for DFS cache to expire
- on reconnect, the previous cached root handle should be invalid, but
  open_cached_dir_by_dentry() will still try to use it, but throws a
  use-after-free warning (kref_get())

Make smb2_close_cached_fid() invalidate all fields every time, but only
send an SMB2_close() when the entry is still valid.
