The internal CLC socket should exist till the SMC-socket is released. Function tcp_listen_worker() releases the internal CLC socket of a listen socket, if an smc_close_active() is called. This function is called for the final release(), but it is called for shutdown SHUT_RDWR as well. This opens a door for protection faults, if socket calls using the internal CLC socket are called for a shutdown listen socket.
With the changes of commit 3d502067599f ("net/smc: simplify wait when closing listen socket") there is no need anymore to release the internal CLC socket in function tcp_listen_worker((). It is sufficient to release it in smc_release().
