Use the previously-added transmit-phase skbuff private flag to simplify the
socket buffer tracing a bit.  Which phase the skbuff comes from can now be
divined from the skb rather than having to be guessed from the call state.

We can also reduce the number of rxrpc_skb_trace values by eliminating the
difference between Tx and Rx in the symbols.

<title>rxrpc: Fix the lack of notification when sendmsg() fails on a DATA packet</title>

<content type='text'>
Fix the fact that a notification isn't sent to the recvmsg side to indicate
a call failed when sendmsg() fails to transmit a DATA packet with the error
ENETUNREACH, EHOSTUNREACH or ECONNREFUSED.

Without this notification, the afs client just sits there waiting for the
call to complete in some manner (which it's not now going to do), which
also pins the rxrpc call in place.

This can be seen if the client has a scope-level IPv6 address, but not a
global-level IPv6 address, and we try and transmit an operation to a
server's IPv6 address.

Looking in /proc/net/rxrpc/calls shows completed calls just sat there with
an abort code of RX_USER_ABORT and an error code of -ENETUNREACH.

<title>rxrpc: Allow the kernel to mark a call as being non-interruptible</title>

<id>b960a34b73e4c1c972623bc2076e24b97588d09e</id>
<content type='text'>
Allow kernel services using AF_RXRPC to indicate that a call should be
non-interruptible.  This allows kafs to make things like lock-extension and
writeback data storage calls non-interruptible.

If this is set, signals will be ignored for operations on that call where
possible - such as waiting to get a call channel on an rxrpc connection.

It doesn't prevent UDP sendmsg from being interrupted, but that will be
handled by packet retransmission.

rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() isn't affected by this since that never waits,
preferring instead to return -EAGAIN and leave the waiting to the caller.

Userspace initiated calls can't be set to be uninterruptible at this time.

Change rxrpc_queue_packet()'s signature so that it can return any error
code it may encounter when trying to send the packet.

This allows the caller to eventually do something in case of error - though
it should be noted that the packet has been queued and a resend is
scheduled.

<title>Revert "rxrpc: Allow failed client calls to be retried"</title>

<id>e122d845a01ece2ddd28b2f125ef2db66b8b627a</id>
<content type='text'>
The changes introduced to allow rxrpc calls to be retried creates an issue
when it comes to refcounting afs_call structs.  The problem is that when
rxrpc_send_data() queues the last packet for an asynchronous call, the
following sequence can occur:

 (1) The notify_end_tx callback is invoked which causes the state in the
     afs_call to be changed from AFS_CALL_CL_REQUESTING or
     AFS_CALL_SV_REPLYING.

 (2) afs_deliver_to_call() can then process event notifications from rxrpc
     on the async_work queue.

 (3) Delivery of events, such as an abort from the server, can cause the
     afs_call state to be changed to AFS_CALL_COMPLETE on async_work.

 (4) For an asynchronous call, afs_process_async_call() notes that the call
     is complete and tried to clean up all the refs on async_work.

 (5) rxrpc_send_data() might return the amount of data transferred
     (success) or an error - which could in turn reflect a local error or a
     received error.

Synchronising the clean up after rxrpc_kernel_send_data() returns an error
with the asynchronous cleanup is then tricky to get right.

Mostly revert commit c038a58ccfd6704d4d7d60ed3d6a0fca13cf13a4.  The two API
functions the original commit added aren't currently used.  This makes
rxrpc_kernel_send_data() always return successfully if it queued the data
it was given.

Note that this doesn't affect synchronous calls since their Rx notification
function merely pokes a wait queue and does not refcounting.  The
asynchronous call notification function *has* to do refcounting and pass a
ref over the work item to avoid the need to sync the workqueue in call
cleanup.

The expect_rx_by call timeout is supposed to be set when a call is started
to indicate that we need to receive a packet by that point.  This is
currently put back every time we receive a packet, but it isn't started
when we first send a packet.  Without this, the call may wait forever if
the server doesn't deign to reply.

Fix this by setting the timeout upon a successful UDP sendmsg call for the
first DATA packet.  The timeout is initiated only for initial transmission
and not for subsequent retries as we don't want the retry mechanism to
extend the timeout indefinitely.

When a new client call is requested, an rxrpc_conn_parameters struct object
is passed in with a bunch of parameters set, such as the local endpoint to
use.  A pointer to the target peer record is also placed in there by
rxrpc_get_client_conn() - and this is removed if and only if a new
connection object is allocated.  Thus it leaks if a new connection object
isn't allocated.

Fix this by putting any peer object attached to the rxrpc_conn_parameters
object in the function that allocated it.
