sg_mark_end() overwrites the page_link information, but all users want
__sg_mark_end() behaviour where we just set the end bit. That is the most
natural way to use the sg list, since you'll fill it in and then mark the
end point.
So change sg_mark_end() to only set the termination bit. Add a sg_magic
debug check as well, and clear a chain pointer if it is set.

This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by
commit 68e3f5dd4d
[CRYPTO] users: Fix up scatterlist conversion errors
The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the
sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry.
The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end().
After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct
solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is
what all of the callers would end up doing anyways.
I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is
the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec().
Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to
__sg_mark_end() as well.
Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't
just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is
what led to these bugs in the first place.
The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable()
and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that
we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h

This patch fixes the errors made in the users of the crypto layer during
the sg_init_table conversion. It also adds a few conversions that were
missing altogether.

This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside
of the actual time-related functions. Instead, use the helper functions
that we already have available to us.
This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to
fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ
(because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate
offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly
to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a
third of a second or so.

Fixes for various arch compilation problems:
(*) Missing module exports.
(*) Variable name collision when rxkad and af_rxrpc both built in
(rxrpc_debug).
(*) Large constant representation problem (AFS_UUID_TO_UNIX_TIME).
(*) Configuration dependencies.
(*) printk() format warnings.

Provide AF_RXRPC sockets that can be used to talk to AFS servers, or serve
answers to AFS clients. KerberosIV security is fully supported. The patches
and some example test programs can be found in:
http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/
This will eventually replace the old implementation of kernel-only RxRPC
currently resident in net/rxrpc/.
