net/smc: Fix possible leaked pernet namespace in smc_init()

[ Upstream commit 62ff373d ]

In smc_init(), register_pernet_subsys(&smc_net_stat_ops) is called
without any error handling.
If it fails, registering of &smc_net_ops won't be reverted.
And if smc_nl_init() fails, &smc_net_stat_ops itself won't be reverted.

This leaves wild ops in subsystem linkedlist and when another module
tries to call register_pernet_operations() it triggers page fault:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff81b964c
RIP: 0010:register_pernet_operations+0x1b9/0x5f0
Call Trace:
  <TASK>
  register_pernet_subsys+0x29/0x40
  ebtables_init+0x58/0x1000 [ebtables]
  ...
