rxrpc normally has the Don't Fragment flag set on the UDP packets it
transmits, except when it has decided that DATA packets aren't getting
through - in which case it turns it off just for the DATA transmissions.
This can be a problem, however, for RESPONSE packets that convey
authentication and crypto data from the client to the server as ticket may
be larger than can fit in the MTU.
In such a case, rxrpc gets itself into an infinite loop as the sendmsg
returns an error (EMSGSIZE), which causes rxkad_send_response() to return
-EAGAIN - and the CHALLENGE packet is put back on the Rx queue to retry,
leading to the I/O thread endlessly attempting to perform the transmission.
Fix this by disabling DF on RESPONSE packets for now. The use of DF and
best data MTU determination needs reconsidering at some point in the
future.
