The original call was issuing callbacks without holding srv_mutex -
callbacks may take this mutex for its internal needs. With the
proposed patch the code will deadlock.

Also the idea of destroying the socket first is to allow possible
retries (from callbacks) to return a proper error instead of trying to
send anything through the reconnecting socket.

If we need to call smbd_destroy() *after* callbacks, let's just move
it alone without the rest of the code.
