Ursula Braun e7b7a64a84 smc: support variable CLC proposal messages
According to RFC7609 [1] the CLC proposal message contains an area of
unknown length for future growth. Additionally it may contain up to
8 IPv6 prefixes. The current version of the SMC-code does not
understand CLC proposal messages using these variable length fields and,
thus, is incompatible with SMC implementations in other operating
systems.

This patch makes sure, SMC understands incoming CLC proposals
* with arbitrary length values for future growth
* with up to 8 IPv6 prefixes

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
