cifs: writing past end of struct in cifs_convert_address()
"s6->sin6_scope_id" is an int bits but strict_strtoul() writes a long so this can corrupt memory on 64 bit systems. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
