Actually while setting the callback, we can not pass the
user-defined/application data. For example: void
SSL_CTX_sess_set_new_cb(SSL_CTX *ctx, int
(*new_session_cb)(SSL *, SSL_SESSION *));
When the callback arrives, I have SSL* and SSL_SESSION*. Earlier I was getting
it from the 'msg_callback_arg' of SSL pointer but in the openssl1.1.1, SSL
structure is no longer accessible.

When the callback is called, the arg you set is given to the callback
function, as a function argument. It's not intended as a general-
purpose data stash.
