as pointed out by yuan linyu in various patches.

The following spatch found many more and also removes the
now unnecessary casts:

<title>rxrpc: Provide a cmsg to specify the amount of Tx data for a call</title>

<content type='text'>
Provide a control message that can be specified on the first sendmsg() of a
client call or the first sendmsg() of a service response to indicate the
total length of the data to be transmitted for that call.

Currently, because the length of the payload of an encrypted DATA packet is
encrypted in front of the data, the packet cannot be encrypted until we
know how much data it will hold.

By specifying the length at the beginning of the transmit phase, each DATA
packet length can be set before we start loading data from userspace (where
several sendmsg() calls may contribute to a particular packet).

An error will be returned if too little or too much data is presented in
the Tx phase.

<title>rxrpc: Add service upgrade support for client connections</title>

<content type='text'>
Make it possible for a client to use AuriStor's service upgrade facility.

The client does this by adding an RXRPC_UPGRADE_SERVICE control message to
the first sendmsg() of a call.  This takes no parameters.

When recvmsg() starts returning data from the call, the service ID field in
the returned msg_name will reflect the result of the upgrade attempt.  If
the upgrade was ignored, srx_service will match what was set in the
sendmsg(); if the upgrade happened the srx_service will be altered to
indicate the service the server upgraded to.

Note that:

 (1) The choice of upgrade service is up to the server

 (2) Further client calls to the same server that would share a connection
     are blocked if an upgrade probe is in progress.

 (3) This should only be used to probe the service.  Clients should then
     use the returned service ID in all subsequent communications with that
     server (and not set the upgrade).  Note that the kernel will not
     retain this information should the connection expire from its cache.

 (4) If a server that supports upgrading is replaced by one that doesn't,
     whilst a connection is live, and if the replacement is running, say,
     OpenAFS 1.6.4 or older or an older IBM AFS, then the replacement
     server will not respond to packets sent to the upgraded connection.

     At this point, calls will time out and the server must be reprobed.

<title>rxrpc: Trace protocol errors in received packets</title>

<id>fb46f6ee10e78799ea38cf97e4bf52cb70f1228a</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a tracepoint (rxrpc_rx_proto) to record protocol errors in received
packets.  The following changes are made:

 (1) Add a function, __rxrpc_abort_eproto(), to note a protocol error on a
     call and mark the call aborted.  This is wrapped by
     rxrpc_abort_eproto() that makes the why string usable in trace.

 (2) Add trace_rxrpc_rx_proto() or rxrpc_abort_eproto() to protocol error
     generation points, replacing rxrpc_abort_call() with the latter.

 (3) Only send an abort packet in rxkad_verify_packet*() if we actually
     managed to abort the call.

Note that a trace event is also emitted if a kernel user (e.g. afs) tries
to send data through a call when it's not in the transmission phase, though
it's not technically a receive event.

the kernel normally deals with and to make the code consistent.  We only
