Netlink support of extended packet number cipher suites,
allows adding and updating XPN macsec interfaces.
Added support in:
* Creating interfaces with GCM-AES-XPN-128 and GCM-AES-XPN-256 suites.
* Setting and getting 64bit packet numbers with of SAs.
* Setting (only on SA creation) and getting ssci of SAs.
* Setting salt when installing a SAK.
Added 2 cipher suite identifiers according to 802.1AE-2018 table 14-1:
* MACSEC_CIPHER_ID_GCM_AES_XPN_128
* MACSEC_CIPHER_ID_GCM_AES_XPN_256
In addition, added 2 new netlink attribute types:
* MACSEC_SA_ATTR_SSCI
* MACSEC_SA_ATTR_SALT
Depends on: macsec: Support XPN frame handling - IEEE 802.1AEbw.

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.
