xfrm: Fix aevent generation for each received packet
If asynchronous events are enabled for a particular netlink socket, the notify function is called by the advance function. The notify function creates and dispatches a km_event if a replay timeout occurred, or at least replay_maxdiff packets have been received since the last asynchronous event has been sent. The function is supposed to return if neither of the two events were detected for a state, or replay_maxdiff is equal to zero. Replay_maxdiff is initialized in xfrm_state_construct to the value of the xfrm.sysctl_aevent_rseqth (2 by default), and updated if for a state if the netlink attribute XFRMA_REPLAY_THRESH is set. If, however, replay_maxdiff is set to zero, then all of the three notify implementations perform a break from the switch statement instead of checking whether a timeout occurred, and -- if not -- return. As a result an asynchronous event is generated for every replay update of a state that has a zero replay_maxdiff value. This patch modifies the notify functions such that they immediately return if replay_maxdiff has the value zero, unless a timeout occurred.
