smc: establish new socket family
* enable smc module loading and unloading
* register new socket family
* basic smc socket creation and deletion
* use backing TCP socket to run CLC (Connection Layer Control)
handshake of SMC protocol
* Setup for infiniband traffic is implemented in follow-on patches.
For now fallback to TCP socket is always used.
