Jason A. Donenfeld 35a1185745 wireguard: netlink: send staged packets when setting initial private key 
commit f58d0a9b4c upstream.

Packets bound for peers can queue up prior to the device private key
being set. For example, if persistent keepalive is set, a packet is
queued up to be sent as soon as the device comes up. However, if the
private key hasn't been set yet, the handshake message never sends, and
no timer is armed to retry, since that would be pointless.

But, if a user later sets a private key, the expectation is that those
queued packets, such as a persistent keepalive, are actually sent. So
adjust the configuration logic to account for this edge case, and add a
test case to make sure this works.

Maxim noticed this with a wg-quick(8) config to the tune of:

    [Interface]
    PostUp = wg set %i private-key somefile

    [Peer]
    PublicKey = ...
    Endpoint = ...
    PersistentKeepalive = 25

Here, the private key gets set after the device comes up using a PostUp
script, triggering the bug.

README 

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.
