This is a rather unusual problem that can come up when fallback=true BEFORE smc_connect()
is called. But nevertheless, it is a problem.

Right now I am not sure if it is okay when we NOT hold a ref to smc->sk during all fallback
processing. This change also conflicts with a patch that is already on net-next (3aba1030).

With the new patch on net-next it would also be possible to detect in __smc_release() that
the socket is in state sk->sk_state == SMC_INIT but the sock->state is SS_CONNECTING or 
SS_CONNECTED and call sock_put() in this case.
What do you think?
