Hi Wen,

you could omit building smc_loopback.o if CONFIG_SMC_LO was not set if
you included the following fixup-patch. I think it's cleaner to put a
few parts of net/smc/af_smc.c under conditional compile rather than
have most of the contents of net/smc/smc_loopback.c under #ifdef.

Even nicer would be, if smc_loopback_init() and smc_loopback_exit()
would have an NO-OP implementation { } straight in
net/smc/smc_loopback.h if CONFIG_SMC_LO was not enabled. That way, one
could leave out the #if ENABLED's in net/smc/af_smc.c entirely.

I think that's more kernel-style like...
