Scott Mayhew 9c1c7edfea nfsd: decouple the xprtsec policy check from check_nfsd_access()
[ Upstream commit e4f574ca9c6dfa66695bb054ff5df43ecea873ec ]

This is a backport of e4f574ca9c6d specifically for the 6.6-stable
kernel.  It differs from the upstream version mainly in that it's
working around the absence of some 6.12-era commits:
- 1459ad57673b nfsd: Move error code mapping to per-version proc code.
- 0a183f24a7ae NFSD: Handle @rqstp == NULL in check_nfsd_access()
- 5e66d2d92a1c nfsd: factor out __fh_verify to allow NULL rqstp to be
  passed

A while back I had reported that an NFSv3 client could successfully
mount using '-o xprtsec=none' an export that had been exported with
'xprtsec=tls:mtls'.  By "successfully" I mean that the mount command
would succeed and the mount would show up in /proc/mount.  Attempting
to do anything futher with the mount would be met with NFS3ERR_ACCES.

Transport Layer Security isn't an RPC security flavor or pseudo-flavor,
so we shouldn't be conflating them when determining whether the access
checks can be bypassed.  Split check_nfsd_access() into two helpers, and
have fh_verify() call the helpers directly since fh_verify() has
logic that allows one or both of the checks to be skipped.  All other
sites will continue to call check_nfsd_access().

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.
