[PATCH net-next 4/8] net/smc: consolidate function parameters

[Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.ibm.com>]

From: Karsten Graul <kgraul@linux.ibm.com>

During initialization of an SMC socket a lot of function parameters need
to get passed down the function call path. Consolidate the parameters
in a helper struct so there are less enough parameters to get all passed
by register.
