> 
> Add fallback session feature allowing to process packets that inline
> processor is unable to handle (e.g. fragmented traffic). Processing
> takes place in a secondary session defined for SA in a configuration
> file.
> 
> This feature is limited to ingress IPsec traffic only. IPsec anti-
> replay window and ESN are supported in conjunction with fallback
> session when following conditions are met:
>  * primary session is 'inline-crypto-offload,
>  * fallback sessions is 'lookaside-none'.
> Due to different processing times of inline and lookaside modes,
> fallback session introduces some packet reordering, therefore when
> using with IPsec window, its value should be increased.
> 
> v6 to v7 changes:
>  - remove partial support for "*-protocol" fall-back session types
>  - rebase on master (31b798a)
