Herbert Xu a263629da5 rxrpc: Avoid using stack memory in SG lists in rxkad
rxkad uses stack memory in SG lists which would not work if stacks were
allocated from vmalloc memory.  In fact, in most cases this isn't even
necessary as the stack memory ends up getting copied over to kmalloc
memory.

This patch eliminates all the unnecessary stack memory uses by supplying
the final destination directly to the crypto API.  In two instances where a
temporary buffer is actually needed we also switch use a scratch area in
the rxrpc_call struct (only one DATA packet will be being secured or
verified at a time).

Finally there is no need to split a split-page buffer into two SG entries
so code dealing with that has been removed.

David Howells e0e4d82f3b rxrpc: Create a null security type and get rid of conditional calls
Create a null security type for security index 0 and get rid of all
conditional calls to the security operations.  We expect normally to be
using security, so this should be of little negative impact.
