[PATCH 07/11] nvme-tcp: define host tcp_proto struct

From: Geliang Tang <tanggeliang at kylinos.cn>

To add MPTCP support in "NVMe over TCP", the host side needs to pass
IPPROTO_MPTCP to sock_create_kern() instead of IPPROTO_TCP to create an
MPTCP socket.

Similar to the target-side nvmet_tcp_proto, this patch defines the
host-side nvme_tcp_proto structure, which contains the protocol of the
socket and a set of function pointers for socket operations. The only
difference is that it defines .set_syncnt instead of .set_reuseaddr.

A TCP-specific version of this structure is defined, and a proto field is
added to nvme_tcp_ctrl. When the transport string is "tcp", it is assigned
to ctrl->proto.

All locations that previously called TCP setsockopt functions are updated
to call the corresponding function pointers in the nvme_tcp_proto
structure. The controller's proto pointer is set during initialization and
remains valid throughout the controller's lifetime.

v2:
 - use 'trtype' instead of '--mptcp' (Hannes)

v3:
 - check mptcp protocol from opts->transport instead of passing a
parameter (Hannes).

v4:
 - check CONFIG_MPTCP.

v5:
 - define nvme_tcp_proto struct.
 - add a pointer to this structure in nvme_tcp_ctrl.
