David Howells 2d914c1bf0 rxrpc: Fix accept on a connection that need securing
When a new incoming call arrives at an userspace rxrpc socket on a new
connection that has a security class set, the code currently pushes it onto
the accept queue to hold a ref on it for the socket.  This doesn't work,
however, as recvmsg() pops it off, notices that it's in the SERVER_SECURING
state and discards the ref.  This means that the call runs out of refs too
early and the kernel oopses.

By contrast, a kernel rxrpc socket manually pre-charges the incoming call
pool with calls that already have user call IDs assigned, so they are ref'd
by the call tree on the socket.

Change the mode of operation for userspace rxrpc server sockets to work
like this too.  Although this is a UAPI change, server sockets aren't
currently functional.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
