Add the infrustructure for attaching Upper Layer Protocols (ULPs) over TCP
sockets. Based on a similar infrastructure in tcp_cong. The idea is that any
ULP can add its own logic by changing the TCP proto_ops structure to its own
methods.
Example usage:
setsockopt(sock, SOL_TCP, TCP_ULP, "tls", sizeof("tls"));
modules will call:
tcp_register_ulp(_tls_ulp_ops);
to register/unregister their ulp, with an init function and name.
A list of registered ulps will be returned by tcp_get_available_ulp, which is
hooked up to /proc. Example:
$ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_available_ulp
tls
There is currently no functionality to remove or chain ULPs, but
it should be possible to add these in the future if needed.
