I've observed that the tls multi_chunk_sendfile selftest hangs during
recv() and ultimately times out, and it seems to have done so even when
the test was first introduced. 

It hangs yet it passes? I lost track of this issue because the test
does pass on my system:

# PASSED: 183 / 183 tests passed.
# Totals: pass:183 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0

Reading through the commit message when
it was added (0e6fbe39bdf7 "net/tls(TLS_SW): Add selftest for 'chunked'
sendfile test") I get the impression that the test is meant to
demonstrate a problem with ktls, but there's no indication that the
problem has been fixed.

Yeah, the fix was discussed here:

IDK why it stalled to be honest :S

Am I right that the expectation is that this test will fail? If that's
the case, shouldn't this test be removed until the problem is fixed?
