net/smc: Remove corked dealyed work
Based on the manual of TCP_CORK [1] and MSG_MORE [2], these two options
have the same effect. Applications can set these options and informs the
kernel to pend the data, and send them out only when the socket or
syscall does not specify this flag. In other words, there's no need to
send data out by a delayed work, which will queue a lot of work.

This removes corked delayed work with SMC_TX_CORK_DELAY (250ms), and the
applications control how/when to send them out. It improves the
performance for sendfile and throughput, and remove unnecessary race of
lock_sock(). This also unlocks the limitation of sndbuf, and try to fill
it up before sending.
