At this point smc->clcsock->sk->sk_data_ready has been changed to smc_clcsock_data_ready. When we call smc_listen again, now both smc->clcsock->sk->sk_data_ready and smc->clcsk_data_ready point to the smc_clcsock_data_ready function. The smc_clcsock_data_ready() function calls lsmc->clcsk_data_ready which now points to itself resulting in an infinite loop. This patch restores smc->clcsock->sk->sk_data_ready with the old value.
