rxrpc: Don't expose skbs to in-kernel users [ver #2]

Don't expose skbs to in-kernel users, such as the AFS filesystem, but
instead provide a notification hook the indicates that a call needs
attention and another that indicates that there's a new call to be
collected.

This makes the following possibilities more achievable:

 (1) Call refcounting can be made simpler if skbs don't hold refs to calls.

 (2) skbs referring to non-data events will be able to be freed much sooner
     rather than being queued for AFS to pick up as rxrpc_kernel_recv_data
     will be able to consult the call state.

 (3) We can shortcut the receive phase when a call is remotely aborted
     because we don't have to go through all the packets to get to the one
     cancelling the operation.

 (4) It makes it easier to do encryption/decryption directly between AFS's
     buffers and sk_buffs.

 (5) Encryption/decryption can more easily be done in the AFS's thread
     contexts - usually that of the userspace process that issued a syscall
     - rather than in one of rxrpc's background threads on a workqueue.

 (6) AFS will be able to wait synchronously on a call inside AF_RXRPC.

To make this work, the following interface function has been added:

     int rxrpc_kernel_recv_data(
		struct socket *sock, struct rxrpc_call *call,
		void *buffer, size_t bufsize, size_t *_offset,
		bool want_more, u32 *_abort_code);

This is the recvmsg equivalent.  It allows the caller to find out about the
state of a specific call and to transfer received data into a buffer
piecemeal.

afs_extract_data() and rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() now do all the extraction
logic between them.  They don't wait synchronously yet because the socket
lock needs to be dealt with.

Five interface functions have been removed:

	rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last()
    	rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code()
    	rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number()
    	rxrpc_kernel_free_skb()
    	rxrpc_kernel_data_consumed()

As a temporary hack, sk_buffs going to an in-kernel call are queued on the
rxrpc_call struct (->knlrecv_queue) rather than being handed over to the
in-kernel user.  To process the queue internally, a temporary function,
temp_deliver_data() has been added.  This will be replaced with common code
between the rxrpc_recvmsg() path and the kernel_rxrpc_recv_data() path in a
future patch.
