After we optimize the parallel capability of SMC-R connection
establishment, there is a certain chance to trigger the
following panic:

The reason here is that when the server tries to create a second link,
smc_llc_srv_add_link() has no protection and may add a new link to
link group. This breaks the security environment protected by
llc_conf_mutex.
