The socket option is unused when QEMU invokes the command directly. The
only (weak) reason why it is still there is to ease testing, such that
you can simply use:

    smbd -s smb.conf -p 1337

Without the socket option, I am afraid that you will accidentally expose
the very permissive share to the network.

So either append a comment explaining the above or just remove it. I am
fine with removing the interfaces option from this patch (or in a future
patch if you prefer that).
