    libceph: implement CEPHX_V2 calculation mode

    commit cc255c76c70f7a87d97939621eae04b600d9f4a1 upstream.

    Derive the signature from the entire buffer (both AES cipher blocks)
    instead of using just the first half of the first block, leaving out
    data_crc entirely.

    This addresses CVE-2018-1129.

Hi Sasha,

The CVEs mentioned in this series are server side and CEPHX_V2 is
probably more of a new feature than a security fix.  That said, I don't
object to including it in 4.14.z.  If you do, please pick up the
remaining two patches for interoperability:

f1d10e046379 libceph: weaken sizeof check in ceph_x_verify_authorizer_reply()
130f52f2b203 libceph: check authorizer reply/challenge length before reading

Would I be pulling this patch if it didn't have the string
"CVE-2018-1129" in the commit message?

Thanks,
Sasha
