Add advanced RPMB support in ufs_bsg:
1. According to the UFS specification, only one RPMB operation can be
performed at any time. We can ensure this by using reserved slot and
its dev_cmd sync operation protection mechanism.
2. For Advanced RPMB, RPMB metadata is packaged in an EHS (Extra Header
Segment) of a command UPIU, and the corresponding reply EHS (from the
device) should also be returned to the user space. bsg_job->request
and bsg_job->reply allow us to pass and return EHS from/back to
userspace.
Compared to normal/legacy RPMB, the advantages of advanced RPMB are:
1. The data length in the Advanced RPMB data read/write command can be
larger than 4KB. For the legacy RPMB, the data length in a single RPMB
data transfer is 256 bytes.
2. All of the advanced RPMB operations will be a single command. For
legacy RPMB, take the read write-counter value as an example, you need
two commands (first SECURITY PROTOCOL OUT, then second SECURITY
PROTOCOL IN).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
