xfrm: add XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE for single SA migration

This patch adds a new netlink method to migrate a single xfrm_state.
Unlike the existing migration mechanism (SA + policy), this supports
migrating only the SA and allows changing the reqid.

What happens to mp->xuo when xuo is NULL?

thanks. I also red this on NIPA AI reviews. I will fix it in the next 
version.

Thanks, good to know.

The xfrm_migrate structure changed its xuo field from a pointer
(struct xfrm_user_offload *xuo) to an embedded value
(struct xfrm_user_offload xuo).

In xfrm_migrate(), when the xuo parameter is NULL (PF_KEY path via
pfkey_migrate, or XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE without XFRMA_OFFLOAD_DEV), the
'if (xuo) mp->xuo = *xuo' branch is skipped, leaving mp->xuo with
uninitialized stack data.

Both callers declare 'struct xfrm_migrate m[XFRM_MAX_DEPTH]' on the
stack without zeroing:

net/key/af_key.c:pfkey_migrate() {
    struct xfrm_migrate m[XFRM_MAX_DEPTH];
    ...
    err = xfrm_migrate(&sel, dir, XFRM_POLICY_TYPE_MAIN, m, i,
                       k.local && k.remote ? &k : NULL, net,
                       NULL, 0, NULL);
}

net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c:xfrm_do_migrate() {
    struct xfrm_migrate m[XFRM_MAX_DEPTH];

-  struct xfrm_migrate m[XFRM_MAX_DEPTH];
+  struct xfrm_migrate m[XFRM_MAX_DEPTH] = {};

this should fix it.

Yes, I agree that should fix the problem.
