Provide a way for the application (e.g. the afs filesystem) to store private data on the rxrpc_peer structs for later retrieval via the call object. This will allow afs to store a pointer to the afs_server object on the rxrpc_peer struct, thereby obviating the need for afs to keep lookup tables by which it can associate an incoming call with server that transmitted it.
