6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 00af2aa93b76b1bade471ad0d0525d4d29ca5cc0 ]
Many syzbot reports show extreme rtnl pressure, and many of them hint
that smc acquires rtnl in netns creation for no good reason [1]
This patch returns early from smc_pnet_net_init()
if there is no netdevice yet.
I am not even sure why smc_pnet_create_pnetids_list() even exists,
because smc_pnet_netdev_event() is also calling
smc_pnet_add_base_pnetid() when handling NETDEV_UP event.
[1] extract of typical syzbot reports
