Documentation: Fix typo 'CONFIG_AFS'
PATCH 1/1 Documentation: Fix typo 'CONFIG_AFS'
---
Perhaps AF_RXRPC should be dropped from this short list (it is selected if AFS_FS is set). But since I couldn't actually determine how AFS_FS and RXKAD interact I decided to not touch that list any further.

AF_RXRPCshould be dropped from this short list (it is selected ifAFS_FSis set). But since I couldn't actually determine howAFS_FSand RXKAD interact I decided to not touch that list any further.
The key_type_rxrpc key that the AFS fs or userspace passes to AF_RXRPC indicates the protocol that AF_RXRPC should use. The AFS fs doesn't need to care how the security actually works and the token is opaque to it.
rxkad registers itself with AF_RXRPC, which maintains a list. The security_index is the number that appears in the protocol that indicates the security driver to use.

Thanks. That would have taken me quite a bit of time to figure out.
I'll leave that short list as is, unless you prefer that I send a v2 dropping AF_RXRPC.
