net/smc: propagate file from SMC to TCP socket
fcntl(fd, F_SETOWN, getpid()) selects the recipient of SIGURG signals that are delivered when out-of-band data arrives on socket fd. If an SMC socket program makes use of such an fcntl() call, it fails in case of fallback to TCP-mode. In case of fallback the traffic is processed with the internal TCP socket. Propagating field "file" from the SMC socket to the internal TCP socket fixes the issue.
