Vakul Garg 94524d8fc9 net/tls: Add support for async decryption of tls records
When tls records are decrypted using asynchronous acclerators such as
NXP CAAM engine, the crypto apis return -EINPROGRESS. Presently, on
getting -EINPROGRESS, the tls record processing stops till the time the
crypto accelerator finishes off and returns the result. This incurs a
context switch and is not an efficient way of accessing the crypto
accelerators. Crypto accelerators work efficient when they are queued
with multiple crypto jobs without having to wait for the previous ones
to complete.

The patch submits multiple crypto requests without having to wait for
for previous ones to complete. This has been implemented for records
which are decrypted in zero-copy mode. At the end of recvmsg(), we wait
for all the asynchronous decryption requests to complete.

The references to records which have been sent for async decryption are
dropped. For cases where record decryption is not possible in zero-copy
mode, asynchronous decryption is not used and we wait for decryption
crypto api to complete.

For crypto requests executing in async fashion, the memory for
aead_request, sglists and skb etc is freed from the decryption
completion handler. The decryption completion handler wakesup the
sleeping user context when recvmsg() flags that it has done sending
all the decryption requests and there are no more decryption requests
pending to be completed.
