IEEE 802.1AEbw-2013 (section 10.7.8) specifies that the maximum value
of the replay window is 2^30-1, to help with recovery of the upper
bits of the PN.
To avoid leaving the existing macsec device in an inconsistent state
if this test fails during changelink, reuse the cleanup mechanism
introduced for HW offload. This wasn't needed until now because
macsec_changelink_common could not fail during changelink, as
modifying the cipher suite was not allowed.
Finally, this must happen after handling IFLA_MACSEC_CIPHER_SUITE so
that secy->xpn is set.

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.
