[PATCH 05/14] kdbus: add connection, queue handling and message validation code

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Daniel Mack <daniel@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds code to create and destroy connections, to validate
incoming messages and to maintain the queue of messages that are
associated with a connection.

Note that connection and queue have a 1:1 relation, the code is only
split in two parts for cleaner separation and better readability.
