In this patch you count the number of inflight SMC handshakes as pending and
check them against the defined max_backlog. I really like this improvement.
There is another queue in af_smc.c, the smc accept queue and any new client
socket that completed the handshake process is enqueued there (in smc_accept_enqueue() )
and is waiting to get accepted by the user space application. To apply the correct
semantics here, I think the number of sockets waiting in the smc accept queue
should also be counted as backlog connections, right? I see no limit for this queue
now. What do you think?
