This patch implements a sunrpc client to use the services of the gssproxy
userspace daemon.
In particular it allows to perform calls in user space using an RPC
call instead of custom hand-coded upcall/downcall messages.
Currently only accept_sec_context is implemented as that is all is needed for
the server case.
File server modules like NFS and CIFS can use full gssapi services this way,
once init_sec_context is also implemented.
For the NFS server case this code allow to lift the limit of max 2k krb5
tickets. This limit is prevents legitimate kerberos deployments from using krb5
authentication with the Linux NFS server as they have normally ticket that are
many kilobytes large.
It will also allow to lift the limitation on the size of the credential set
(uid,gid,gids) passed down from user space for users that have very many groups
associated. Currently the downcall mechanism used by rpc.svcgssd is limited
to around 2k secondary groups of the 65k allowed by kernel structures.

Changed Makefile to use <modules>-y instead of <modules>-objs
because -objs is deprecated and not mentioned in
Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt.

Unfortunately, spkm3 never got very far; while interoperability with one
other implementation was demonstrated at some point, problems were found
with the spec that were deemed not worth fixing.
The kernel code is useless on its own without nfs-utils patches which
were never merged into nfs-utils, and were only ever available from
citi.umich.edu. They appear not to have been updated since 2005.
Therefore it seems safe to assume that this code has no users, and never
will.

Import the code to derive Kerberos keys from a base key into the
kernel. This will allow us to change the format of the context
information sent down from gssd to include only a single key.

The gss_krb5_crypto.o object belongs in the rpcsec_gss_krb5 module.
Also, there is no need to export symbols from gss_krb5_crypto.c

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
