If rxrpc_kernel_send_data() is asked to send data through a call that has
already failed (due to a remote abort, received protocol error or network
error), then return the associated error code saved in the call rather than
ESHUTDOWN.

This allows the caller to work out whether to ask for the abort code or not
based on this.

The call state may be changed at any time by the data-ready routine in
response to received packets, so if the call state is to be read and acted
upon several times in a function, READ_ONCE() must be used unless the call
state lock is held.

Fix a potential NULL-pointer exception in rxrpc_do_sendmsg().  The call
state check that I added should have gone into the else-body of the
if-statement where we actually have a call to check.

<content type='text'>
All the routines by which rxrpc is accessed from the outside are serialised
by means of the socket lock (sendmsg, recvmsg, bind,
rxrpc_kernel_begin_call(), ...) and this presents a problem:

 (1) If a number of calls on the same socket are in the process of
     connection to the same peer, a maximum of four concurrent live calls
     are permitted before further calls need to wait for a slot.

 (2) If a call is waiting for a slot, it is deep inside sendmsg() or
     rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() and the entry function is holding the socket
     lock.

 (3) sendmsg() and recvmsg() or the in-kernel equivalents are prevented
     from servicing the other calls as they need to take the socket lock to
     do so.

 (4) The socket is stuck until a call is aborted and makes its slot
     available to the waiter.

Fix this by:

 (1) Provide each call with a mutex ('user_mutex') that arbitrates access
     by the users of rxrpc separately for each specific call.

 (2) Make rxrpc_sendmsg() and rxrpc_recvmsg() unlock the socket as soon as
     they've got a call and taken its mutex.

     Note that I'm returning EWOULDBLOCK from recvmsg() if MSG_DONTWAIT is
     set but someone else has the lock.  Should I instead only return
     EWOULDBLOCK if there's nothing currently to be done on a socket, and
     sleep in this particular instance because there is something to be
     done, but we appear to be blocked by the interrupt handler doing its
     ping?

 (3) Make rxrpc_new_client_call() unlock the socket after allocating a new
     call, locking its user mutex and adding it to the socket's call tree.
     The call is returned locked so that sendmsg() can add data to it
     immediately.

     From the moment the call is in the socket tree, it is subject to
     access by sendmsg() and recvmsg() - even if it isn't connected yet.

 (4) Lock new service calls in the UDP data_ready handler (in
     rxrpc_new_incoming_call()) because they may already be in the socket's
     tree and the data_ready handler makes them live immediately if a user
     ID has already been preassigned.

     Note that the new call is locked before any notifications are sent
     that it is live, so doing mutex_trylock() *ought* to always succeed.
     Userspace is prevented from doing sendmsg() on calls that are in a
     too-early state in rxrpc_do_sendmsg().

 (5) Make rxrpc_new_incoming_call() return the call with the user mutex
     held so that a ping can be scheduled immediately under it.

     Note that it might be worth moving the ping call into
     rxrpc_new_incoming_call() and then we can drop the mutex there.

 (6) Make rxrpc_accept_call() take the lock on the call it is accepting and
     release the socket after adding the call to the socket's tree.  This
     is slightly tricky as we've dequeued the call by that point and have
     to requeue it.

     Note that requeuing emits a trace event.

 (7) Make rxrpc_kernel_send_data() and rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() take the
     new mutex immediately and don't bother with the socket mutex at all.

This patch has the nice bonus that calls on the same socket are now to some
extent parallelisable.

Note that we might want to move rxrpc_service_prealloc() calls out from the
socket lock and give it its own lock, so that we don't hang progress in
other calls because we're waiting for the allocator.

We probably also want to avoid calling rxrpc_notify_socket() from within
the socket lock (rxrpc_accept_call()).

<title>rxrpc: Need to produce an ACK for service op if op takes a long time</title>

<content type='text'>
We need to generate a DELAY ACK from the service end of an operation if we
start doing the actual operation work and it takes longer than expected.
This will hard-ACK the request data and allow the client to release its
resources.

To make this work:

 (1) We have to set the ack timer and propose an ACK when the call moves to
     the RXRPC_CALL_SERVER_ACK_REQUEST and clear the pending ACK and cancel
     the timer when we start transmitting the reply (the first DATA packet
     of the reply implicitly ACKs the request phase).

 (2) It must be possible to set the timer when the caller is holding
     call-&gt;state_lock, so split the lock-getting part of the timer function
     out.

 (3) Add trace notes for the ACK we're requesting and the timer we clear.

To make this work:

 (1) We have to set the ack timer and propose an ACK when the call moves to
     the RXRPC_CALL_SERVER_ACK_REQUEST and clear the pending ACK and cancel
     the timer when we start transmitting the reply (the first DATA packet
     of the reply implicitly ACKs the request phase).

 (2) It must be possible to set the timer when the caller is holding
     call-&gt;state_lock, so split the lock-getting part of the timer function
     out.

 (3) Add trace notes for the ACK we're requesting and the timer we clear.

<title>rxrpc: Fix loss of PING RESPONSE ACK production due to PING ACKs</title>

Separate the output of PING ACKs from the output of other sorts of ACK so
that if we receive a PING ACK and schedule transmission of a PING RESPONSE
ACK, the response doesn't get cancelled by a PING ACK we happen to be
scheduling transmission of at the same time.

If a PING RESPONSE gets lost, the other side might just sit there waiting
for it and refuse to proceed otherwise.

<title>rxrpc: Fix warning by splitting rxrpc_send_call_packet()</title>

Split rxrpc_send_data_packet() to separate ACK generation (which is more
complicated) from ABORT generation.  This simplifies the code a bit and
fixes the following warning:

In file included from ../net/rxrpc/output.c:20:0:
net/rxrpc/output.c: In function 'rxrpc_send_call_packet':
net/rxrpc/ar-internal.h:1187:27: error: 'top' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
net/rxrpc/output.c:103:24: note: 'top' was declared here
net/rxrpc/output.c:225:25: error: 'hard_ack' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
