Hi-

Here is v4 of a series to add generic support for transport layer
security handshake on behalf of kernel socket consumers (user space
consumers use a security library directly, of course).

A summary of the purpose of these patches is archived here:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/1DE06BB1-6BA9-4DB4-B2AA-07DE532963D6@oracle.com/ (local)

This version of the series replaces Classic Netlink infrastructure
with Generic Netlink, as requested. It is again a signficant rewrite
of the previous version of the series. There are several more tasks
to complete, including the creation of a YAML protocol
specification and the ability to return multiple remote peer
identities upon handshake completion.

The full patch set to support SunRPC with TLSv1.3 is available in
the topic-rpc-with-tls-upcall branch here, based on v6.1.12:

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cel/linux.git

A sample user space handshake agent with netlink support is
available in the "netlink" branch here:

Changes since v3:
- Converted all netlink code to use Generic Netlink
- Reworked handshake request lifetime logic throughout
- Global pending list is now per-net
- On completion, return the remote's identity to the consumer

Changes since v2:
- PF_HANDSHAKE replaced with NETLINK_HANDSHAKE
- Replaced listen(2) / poll(2) with a multicast notification service
- Replaced accept(2) with a netlink operation that can return an
  open fd and handshake parameters
- Replaced close(2) with a netlink operation that can take arguments

Changes since RFC:
- Generic upcall support split away from kTLS
- Added support for TLS ServerHello
- Documentation has been temporarily removed while API churns
