Change rxrpc's API such that:
(1) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer(), is provided to look up an
rxrpc_peer record for a remote address and a corresponding function,
rxrpc_kernel_put_peer(), is provided to dispose of it again.
(2) When setting up a call, the rxrpc_peer object used during a call is
now passed in rather than being set up by rxrpc_connect_call(). For
afs, this meenat passing it to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() rather than
the full address (the service ID then has to be passed in as a
separate parameter).
(3) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr(), is added so that afs can
get a pointer to the transport address for display purposed, and
another, rxrpc_kernel_remote_srx(), to gain a pointer to the full
rxrpc address.
(4) The function to retrieve the RTT from a call, rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt(),
is then altered to take a peer. This now returns the RTT or -1 if
there are insufficient samples.
(5) Rename rxrpc_kernel_get_peer() to rxrpc_kernel_call_get_peer().
(6) Provide a new function, rxrpc_kernel_get_peer(), to get a ref on a
peer the caller already has.
This allows the afs filesystem to pin the rxrpc_peer records that it is
using, allowing faster lookups and pointer comparisons rather than
comparing sockaddr_rxrpc contents. It also makes it easier to get hold of
the RTT. The following changes are made to afs:
(1) The addr_list struct's addrs[] elements now hold a peer struct pointer
and a service ID rather than a sockaddr_rxrpc.
(2) When displaying the transport address, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr() is
used.
(3) The port arg is removed from afs_alloc_addrlist() since it's always
overridden.
(4) afs_merge_fs_addr4() and afs_merge_fs_addr6() do peer lookup and may
now return an error that must be handled.
(5) afs_find_server() now takes a peer pointer to specify the address.
(6) afs_find_server(), afs_compare_fs_alists() and afs_merge_fs_addr[46]{}
now do peer pointer comparison rather than address comparison.
