While reverting commit e9f2517a3e18 ("smb: client: fix TCP timers deadlock
after rmmod"), I should have added net_passive_dec(), which was added
between the original commit and the revert by commit 5c70eb5c593d ("net:
better track kernel sockets lifetime").

Let's call net_passive_dec() in generic_ip_connect().

Note that this commit is only needed for 6.14+.
