Subject: [PATCH net 2/2] net/smc: retain old name for diag_mode field

Commit v4.19-rc1~140^2~285^2~4 changed the name of diag_fallback field
of struct smc_diag_msg structure to diag_mode.  However, this structure
is a part of UAPI, and this change breaks user space applications that
use it ([1], for example).  Since the new name is more suitable, convert
the field to a union that provides access to the data via both the new
and the old name.

Fixes: c601171d7a60 ("net/smc: provide smc mode in smc_diag.c")
