[PATCH] nvme-tcp: can't set sk_user_data without write_lock

The sk_user_data pointer is supposed to be modified only while
holding the write_lock "sk_callback_lock", otherwise
we could race with other threads and crash the kernel.
we can't take the write_lock in nvmet_tcp_state_change()
because it would cause a deadlock, but the release_work queue
will set the pointer to NULL later so we can simply remove
the assignment.
