Jakub Kicinski f42c104f2e Documentation: add TLS offload documentation
Describe existing kernel TLS offload (added back in Linux 4.19) -
the mechanism, the expected behavior and the notable corner cases.

This documentation is mostly targeting hardware vendors who want
to implement offload, to ensure consistency between implementations.

v2:
 - add emphasis around TLS_SW/TLS_HW/TLS_HW_RECORD;
 - remove mentions of ongoing work (Boris);
 - split the flow of data in SW vs. HW cases in TX overview
   (Boris);
 - call out which fields are updated by the device and which
   are filled by the stack (Boris);
 - move error handling into it's own section (Boris);
 - add more words about fallback (Boris);
 - note that checksum validation is required (Alexei);
 - note that drivers shouldn't pay attention to the TLS
   device features.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
