Convert kTLS over to make use of sk_msg interface for plaintext and
encrypted scattergather data, so it reuses all the sk_msg helpers
and data structure which later on in a second step enables to glue
this to BPF.
This also allows to remove quite a bit of open coded helpers which
are covered by the sk_msg API. Recent changes in kTLs 80ece6a03aaf
("tls: Remove redundant vars from tls record structure") and
4e6d47206c32 ("tls: Add support for inplace records encryption")
changed the data path handling a bit; while we've kept the latter
optimization intact, we had to undo the former change to better
fit the sk_msg model, hence the sg_aead_in and sg_aead_out have
been brought back and are linked into the sk_msg sgs. Now the kTLS
record contains a msg_plaintext and msg_encrypted sk_msg each.
In the original code, the zerocopy_from_iter() has been used out
of TX but also RX path. For the strparser skb-based RX path,
we've left the zerocopy_from_iter() in decrypt_internal() mostly
untouched, meaning it has been moved into tls_setup_from_iter()
with charging logic removed (as not used from RX). Given RX path
is not based on sk_msg objects, we haven't pursued setting up a
dummy sk_msg to call into sk_msg_zerocopy_from_iter(), but it
could be an option to prusue in a later step.
Joint work with John.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
