Commit Message

rxkad sometimes triggers a warning about oversized stack frames
when building with clang for a 32-bit architecture:

net/rxrpc/rxkad.c:243:12: error: stack frame size of 1088 bytes in function 'rxkad_secure_packet' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
net/rxrpc/rxkad.c:501:12: error: stack frame size of 1088 bytes in function 'rxkad_verify_packet' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]

The problem is the combination of SYNC_SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK()
in rxkad_verify_packet()/rxkad_secure_packet() with the relatively
large scatterlist in rxkad_verify_packet_1()/rxkad_secure_packet_encrypt().

The warning does not show up when using gcc, which does not inline
the functions as aggressively, but the problem is still the same.

Marking the inner functions as 'noinline_for_stack' makes clang
behave the same way as gcc and avoids the warning.
This may not be ideal as it leaves the underlying problem
unchanged. If we want to actually reduce the stack usage here,
the skcipher_request and scatterlist objects need to be moved
off the stack.
