This commit depends on two other commits, both of which are in
mainline, but may not comply with stable rules (they are small
renames).  If that's OK, please apply to 3.13 and 3.12:

3cea4c3071d4e55e9d7356efe9d0ebf92f0c2204
libceph: rename ceph_msg::front_max to front_alloc_len

3f0a4ac55fe036902e3666be740da63528ad8639
libceph: rename front to front_len in get_reply()

f2be82b0058e90b5d9ac2cb896b4914276fb50ef
libceph: fix preallocation check in get_reply()

Thanks,

                Ilya
