Ursula Braun d5b361b0dc net/smc: remove Kconfig warning
Now separate memory regions are created and registered for separate
RMBs. The unsafe_global_rkey of the protection domain is no longer
used. Thus the exposing memory warning can be removed.

Christoph Hellwig 19a0f7e37c net/smc: Add warning about remote memory exposure
The driver explicitly bypasses APIs to register all memory once a
connection is made, and thus allows remote access to memory.

Ursula Braun ac7138746e 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.
