net/smc: Reset conn->lgr when link group registration fails
SMC connections might fail to be registered in a link group due to unable to find a usable link during its creation. As a result, smc_conn_create() will return a failure and most resources related to the connection won't be applied or initialized, such as conn->abort_work or conn->lnk. If smc_conn_free() is invoked later, it will try to access the uninitialized resources related to the connection, thus causing a warning or crash. This patch tries to fix this by resetting conn->lgr to NULL if an abnormal exit occurs in smc_lgr_register_conn(), thus avoiding the access to uninitialized resources in smc_conn_free(). Meanwhile, the new created link group should be terminated if smc connections can't be registered in it. So smc_lgr_cleanup_early() is modified to take care of link group only and invoked to terminate unusable link group by smc_conn_create(). The call to smc_conn_free() is moved out from smc_lgr_cleanup_early() to smc_conn_abort().
