Subject: [PATCH net v2 2/2] net/smc: retain old name for diag_mode field

From: Eugene Syromiatnikov <[email-masked]>

Commit c601171d7a60 ("net/smc: provide smc mode in smc_diag.c") changed
the name of diag_fallback field of struct smc_diag_msg structure
to diag_mode.  However, this structure is a part of UAPI, and this change
breaks user space applications that use it ([1], for example).  Since
the new name is more suitable, convert the field to a union that provides
access to the data via both the new and the old name.
