	Provide a way for the application (e.g. the afs filesystem) to store private data on the rxrpc_peer structs for later retrieval via the call object. This will allow afs to store a pointer to the afs_server object on the rxrpc_peer struct, thereby obviating the need for afs to keep lookup tables by which it can associate an incoming call with server that transmitted it.

2025-04-14	rxrpc: Allow CHALLENGEs to the passed to the app for a RESPONSE	David Howells
	Allow the app to request that CHALLENGEs be passed to it through an out-of-band queue that allows recvmsg() to pick it up so that the app can add data to it with sendmsg(). This will allow the application (AFS or userspace) to interact with the process if it wants to and put values into user-defined fields. This will be used by AFS when talking to a fileserver to supply that fileserver with a crypto key by which callback RPCs can be encrypted (ie. notifications from the fileserver to the client).
