net/smc: Hold a socket reference for transmit work

SMC transmit work is queued without holding a socket reference. After
an active close has cancelled tx_work, a received CDC message can queue
it again while the socket is in SMC_PEERCLOSEWAIT1. Passive close can
then reach SMC_CLOSED, call smc_conn_free() and drop the last socket
reference before smc_tx_work() acquires the socket lock. The worker
then accesses the freed socket.

KASAN reported:

Hold a socket reference for each successful enqueue and release it when
the worker finishes or a pending invocation is cancelled. Cover all three
queue sites and all cancellation sites, including the socket options.
Check conn->freed in smc_tx_pending() under the socket lock: retaining the
socket does not retain connection resources released by smc_conn_free().
This also covers pending transmit processing from smc_release_cb().

Use queue_delayed_work() for the busy-slot retry as well. All tx_work
delays are zero, so an already queued invocation needs no timer update.
Unlike mod_delayed_work(), its return value distinguishes a successful
enqueue from work disabled temporarily by cancel_delayed_work_sync(),
allowing the extra reference to be returned when no work was queued.
