[PATCH] net/smc: avoid atomic_set and smp_wmb in the tx path when possible

these is less opportunity that conn->tx_pushing is not 1, since
tx_pushing is just checked with 1, so move the setting tx_pushing
to 1 after atomic_dec_and_test() return false, to avoid atomic_set
and smp_wmb in tx path when possible
