Subject: [PATCH net] net/smc: fix a memory leak in smc_sysctl_net_exit()

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

Recently added smc_sysctl_net_exit() forgot to free
the memory allocated from smc_sysctl_net_init()
for non initial network namespace.

Fixes: 462791bbfa35 ("net/smc: add sysctl interface for SMC")
