Provide an NMI-safe SRCU protected variant to walk the console list.
Note that all console fields are now set before adding the console
to the list to avoid the console becoming visible by SCRU readers
before being fully initialized.
This is a preparatory change for a new console infrastructure which
operates independent of the console BKL.

Previously we limited the maximum alignment mask to 63. This
is mostly due to stack usage for shash. This patch introduces
a separate limit for shash algorithms and increases the general
limit to 127 which is the value that we need for DMA allocations
on arm64.

The helper crypto_tfm_ctx is only used by the Crypto API algorithm

After commit 9ed7bfc79542 ("sctp: fix memory leak in
sctp_stream_outq_migrate()"), sctp_sched_set_sched() is the only
place calling sched->free(), and it can actually be replaced by
sched->free_sid() on each stream, and yet there's already a loop
to traverse all streams in sctp_sched_set_sched().
This patch adds a function sctp_sched_free_sched() where it calls
sched->free_sid() for each stream to replace sched->free() calls
in sctp_sched_set_sched() and then deletes the unused free member
from struct sctp_sched_ops.

These old unused definitions were originally left around to prevent the
same mode numbers from being reused. However, we've now decided to
reuse the mode numbers anyway. So let's completely remove these old
unused definitions to avoid confusion. There is no reason for any code
to be using these constants in any way; and indeed, Debian Code Search
shows no uses of them (other than in copies or translations of the
header). So this should be perfectly safe.

To do that, separate two scenarios:
- where it's the first MD5 key on the system, which means that enabling
of the static key may need to sleep;
- copying of an existing key from a listening socket to the request
socket upon receiving a signed TCP segment, where static key was
already enabled (when the key was added to the listening socket).
Now the life-time of the static branch for TCP-MD5 is until:
- last tcp_md5sig_info is destroyed
- last socket in time-wait state with MD5 key is closed.
Which means that after all sockets with TCP-MD5 keys are gone, the
system gets back the performance of disabled md5-key static branch.
While at here, provide static_key_fast_inc() helper that does ref
counter increment in atomic fashion (without grabbing cpus_read_lock()
on CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=y). This is needed to add a new user for
a static_key when the caller controls the lifetime of another user.

1. With CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n static_key_slow_inc() doesn't have any
protection against key->enabled refcounter overflow.
2. With CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=y static_key_slow_inc_cpuslocked()
still may turn the refcounter negative as (v + 1) may overflow.
key->enabled is indeed a ref-counter as it's documented in multiple
places: top comment in jump_label.h, Documentation/staging/static-keys.rst,
etc.
As -1 is reserved for static key that's in process of being enabled,
functions would break with negative key->enabled refcount:
- for CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n negative return of static_key_count()
breaks static_key_false(), static_key_true()
- the ref counter may become 0 from negative side by too many
static_key_slow_inc() calls and lead to use-after-free issues.
These flaws result in that some users have to introduce an additional
mutex and prevent the reference counter from overflowing themselves,
see bpf_enable_runtime_stats() checking the counter against INT_MAX / 2.
Prevent the reference counter overflow by checking if (v + 1) > 0.
Change functions API to return whether the increment was successful.

master passphrase will return a specific error that indicates master

This can be used to selectively disable feature flags for checksum offload,
scatter/gather or GSO by changing vif->netdev_features.
Removing features from vif->netdev_features does not affect the netdev
features themselves, but instead fixes up skbs in the tx path so that the
offloads are not needed in the driver.
Aside from making it easier to deal with vif type based hardware limitations,
this also makes it possible to optimize performance on hardware without native
GSO support by declaring GSO support in hw->netdev_features and removing it
from vif->netdev_features. This allows mac80211 to handle GSO segmentation
after the sta lookup, but before itxq enqueue, thus reducing the number of
unnecessary sta lookups, as well as some other per-packet processing.

Move the functions from the call->processor and local->processor work items
into the domain of the I/O thread.
The call event processor, now called from the I/O thread, then takes over
the job of cranking the call state machine, processing incoming packets and
transmitting DATA, ACK and ABORT packets. In a future patch,
rxrpc_send_ACK() will transmit the ACK on the spot rather than queuing it
for later transmission.
The call event processor becomes purely received-skb driven. It only
transmits things in response to events. We use "pokes" to queue a dummy
skb to make it do things like start/resume transmitting data. Timer expiry
also results in pokes.
The connection event processor, becomes similar, though crypto events, such
as dealing with CHALLENGE and RESPONSE packets is offloaded to a work item
to avoid doing crypto in the I/O thread.
The local event processor is removed and VERSION response packets are
generated directly from the packet parser. Similarly, ABORTs generated in
response to protocol errors will be transmitted immediately rather than
being pushed onto a queue for later transmission.

A received skbuff needs a ref when it gets put on a call data queue or conn
packet queue, and rxrpc_input_packet() and co. jump through a lot of hoops
to avoid double-dropping the skbuff ref so that we can avoid getting a ref
when we queue the packet.
Change this so that the skbuff ref is unconditionally dropped by the caller
of rxrpc_input_packet(). An additional ref is then taken on the packet if
it is pushed onto a queue.

Move DATA transmission into the call processor work item. In a future
patch, this will be called from the I/O thread rather than being itsown
work item.
This will allow DATA transmission to be driven directly by incoming ACKs,
pokes and timers as those are processed.
The Tx queue is also split: The queue of packets prepared by sendmsg is now
places in call->tx_sendmsg and the packet dispatcher decants the packets
into call->tx_buffer as space becomes available in the transmission
window. This allows sendmsg to run ahead of the available space to try and
prevent an underflow in transmission.

Copy client call parameters into rxrpc_call earlier so that that can be
used to convey them to the connection code - which can then be offloaded to
the I/O thread.

Provide a means by which an event notification can be sent to a call such
that the I/O thread can process it rather than it being done in a separate
workqueue. This will allow a lot of locking to be removed.

Currently, rxrpc gives the connection's work item a ref on the connection
when it queues it - and this is called from the timer expiration function.
The problem comes when queue_work() fails (ie. the work item is already
queued): the timer routine must put the ref - but this may cause the
cleanup code to run.
This has the unfortunate effect that the cleanup code may then be run in
softirq context - which means that any spinlocks it might need to touch
have to be guarded to disable softirqs (ie. they need a "_bh" suffix).
(1) Don't give a ref to the work item.
(2) Simplify handling of service connections by adding a separate active
count so that the refcount isn't also used for this.
(3) Connection destruction for both client and service connections can
then be cleaned up by putting rxrpc_put_connection() out of line and
making a tidy progression through the destruction code (offloaded to a
workqueue if put from softirq or processor function context). The RCU
part of the cleanup then only deals with the freeing at the end.
(4) Make rxrpc_queue_conn() return immediately if it sees the active count
is -1 rather then queuing the connection.
(5) Make sure that the cleanup routine waits for the work item to
complete.
(6) Stash the rxrpc_net pointer in the conn struct so that the rcu free
routine can use it, even if the local endpoint has been freed.
Unfortunately, neither the timer nor the work item can simply get around
the problem by just using refcount_inc_not_zero() as the waits would still
have to be done, and there would still be the possibility of having to put
the ref in the expiration function.
Note the connection work item is mostly going to go away with the main
event work being transferred to the I/O thread, so the wait in (6) will
become obsolete.

Currently, rxrpc gives the call timer a ref on the call when it starts it
and this is passed along to the workqueue by the timer expiration function.
The problem comes when queue_work() fails (ie. the work item is already
queued): the timer routine must put the ref - but this may cause the
cleanup code to run.
This has the unfortunate effect that the cleanup code may then be run in
softirq context - which means that any spinlocks it might need to touch
have to be guarded to disable softirqs (ie. they need a "_bh" suffix).
Fix this by:
(1) Don't give a ref to the timer.
(2) Making the expiration function not do anything if the refcount is 0.
Note that this is more of an optimisation.
(3) Make sure that the cleanup routine waits for timer to complete.
However, this has a consequence that timer cannot give a ref to the work
item. Therefore the following fixes are also necessary:
(4) Don't give a ref to the work item.
(5) Make the work item return asap if it sees the ref count is 0.
(6) Make sure that the cleanup routine waits for the work item to
complete.
Unfortunately, neither the timer nor the work item can simply get around
the problem by just using refcount_inc_not_zero() as the waits would still
have to be done, and there would still be the possibility of having to put
the ref in the expiration function.
Note the call work item is going to go away with the work being transferred
to the I/O thread, so the wait in (6) will become obsolete.
