Subject: [PATCH net-next] net/smc: Support SO_REUSEPORT

This enables SO_REUSEPORT [1] for clcsock when it is set on smc socket,
so that some applications which uses it can be transparently replaced
with SMC. Also, this helps improve load distribution.

Here is a simple test of NGINX + wrk with SMC. The CPU usage is collected
on NGINX (server) side as below.

Disable SO_REUSEPORT:

05:15:33 PM  CPU    %usr   %nice    %sys %iowait    %irq   %soft  %steal  %guest  %gnice   %idle
05:15:34 PM  all    7.02    0.00   11.86    0.00    2.04    8.93    0.00    0.00    0.00   70.15

Enable SO_REUSEPORT:

05:15:20 PM  CPU    %usr   %nice    %sys %iowait    %irq   %soft  %steal  %guest  %gnice   %idle

Using SO_REUSEPORT helps the load distribution of NGINX be more
balanced.
