[PATCH 0/8] SUNRPC: Fix TLS control record handling

The read_sock_rectype proto_ops method is not going forward. Designing
its replacement meant another pass over the receive path it was meant to
replace, and that pass turned up the defects fixed here. None arrived as
a bug report.

The code path that handles TLS Alerts on behalf of in-kernel kTLS
consumers has been reworked twice already. For the record: 5e052dda121e
added control message recognition, and 39067dda1d86 moved the parsing
into the net/handshake helpers. bee47cb026e7 and cc5d59081fa2 then
reworked both sides after Scott Mayhew reported that kTLS was writing
alert bodies into the RPC receive buffer. Mounts against a FreeBSD
server over mutual TLS broke, and 9559d2fffd4f restored the other cmsg
types. The same rework moved the receive into a local buffer, but the
length accounting did not follow. A control record's octets are credited
to the RPC stream, and a consumed control record leaves the server
transport unmarked. The peer still controls the alert body's length, and
nothing checks it before tls_alert_recv() reads two octets. A peer that
aborts with an error alert while leaving that octet set to warning
currently leaves a dead TLS session attached to a live transport.

These accounting defects do not have a trigger today. Both need a peer
that sends a post-handshake control record (e.g., KeyUpdate). However,
no existing RPC-with-TLS implementation does this today. Therefore these
patches are posted as individual fixes that can be backported if LTS
kernels should need to interoperate when KeyUpdate subsequently arrives
in clients and servers.

Eagle-eyed reviewers might notice that the two call sites this series
touches are the last consumers of <net/tls_prot.h> in net/sunrpc/. Both
sites now state the same record-type test, the same two-octet rule, and
the same closure classification. A helper in net/handshake/alert.c
could hold all three and return a verdict, which would let net/sunrpc/
drop the header and keep only the transport policy. That is deferred to
a next step rather than included as part of this series to keep LTS
backports practical.

I'd appreciate an Acked-by from the client maintainers for the three
patches that touch xprtsock.c.
