I am not sure if I understand this fix completely, please explain your intentions
for the changes in more detail.

What I see so far:
- smc_create() swaps the sk->sk_wq of the clcsocket and the new SMC socket
  - sets clcsocket sk->sk_wq to smcsocket->wq (why?)
  - sets smcsocket sk->sk_wq to clcsocket->wq (why?)
- smc_switch_to_fallback() resets the clcsock sk->sk_wq to clcsocket->wq
- smc_accept() sets smcsocket sk->sk_wq to clcsocket->wq when it is NOT fallback
  - but this was already done before in smc_create() ??
- smc_poll() now always uses clcsocket->wq for the call to sock_poll_wait()

In smc_poll() the comment says that now clcsocket->wq is used for poll, whats
the relation between socket->wq and socket->sk->sk_wq here?
