net/smc: Fix NULL pointer dereferencing in smc_vlan_by_tcpsk()

Coverity reports a possible NULL dereferencing problem:

in smc_vlan_by_tcpsk():
6. returned_null: netdev_lower_get_next returns NULL (checked 29 out of 30 times).
7. var_assigned: Assigning: ndev = NULL return value from netdev_lower_get_next.
1623                ndev = (struct net_device *)netdev_lower_get_next(ndev, &lower);
CID 1468509 (#1 of 1): Dereference null return value (NULL_RETURNS)
8. dereference: Dereferencing a pointer that might be NULL ndev when calling is_vlan_dev.
1624                if (is_vlan_dev(ndev)) {

Remove the manual implementation and use netdev_walk_all_lower_dev() to
iterate over the lower devices. While on it remove an obsolete function
parameter comment.
