Stephan Mueller c692698ebe crypto: af_alg - wait for data at beginning of recvmsg ...

commit 11edb55596 upstream.

The wait for data is a non-atomic operation that can sleep and therefore
potentially release the socket lock. The release of the socket lock
allows another thread to modify the context data structure. The waiting
operation for new data therefore must be called at the beginning of
recvmsg. This prevents a race condition where checks of the members of
the context data structure are performed by recvmsg while there is a
potential for modification of these values.
