Mahanta Jambigi b3bab397a3 net/smc: Remove validation of reserved bits in CLC Decline message
[ Upstream commit cc282f73bc ]

Currently SMC code is validating the reserved bits while parsing the incoming
CLC decline message & when this validation fails, its treated as a protocol
error. As a result, the SMC connection is terminated instead of falling back to
TCP. As per RFC7609[1] specs we shouldn't be validating the reserved bits that
is part of CLC message. This patch fixes this issue.

CLC Decline message format can viewed here[2].
