Subject: [PATCH] fs/cifs: fix uninitialised variable warnings

In some error conditions, resp_buftype can be passed uninitialised to
free_rsp_buf(), potentially resulting in a spurious debug message.
If resp_buftype randomly had the value 1 (CIFS_SMALL_BUFFER) then this
would log a debug message.
The rsp pointer is initialised to NULL so there is no other side-effect.
