    libceph: verify authorize reply on connect · 5c056fdc
    Ilya Dryomov authored
    After sending an authorizer (ceph_x_authorize_a + ceph_x_authorize_b),
    the client gets back a ceph_x_authorize_reply, which it is supposed to
    verify to ensure the authenticity and protect against replay attacks.
    The code for doing this is there (ceph_x_verify_authorizer_reply(),
    ceph_auth_verify_authorizer_reply() + plumbing), but it is never
    invoked by the the messenger.
    
    AFAICT this goes back to 2009, when ceph authentication protocols
    support was added to the kernel client in 4e7a5dcd
    
     ("ceph:
    negotiate authentication protocol; implement AUTH_NONE protocol").
    
    The second param of ceph_connection_operations::verify_authorizer_reply
    is unused all the way down.  Pass 0 to facilitate backporting, and kill
    it in the next commit.
