Stephan, why does af_alg_get_rsgl() call af_alg_wait_for_data()?  It's not
actually reading anything from the "TX SGL" yet; it's just preparing the "RX
SGL".  It seems to be in completely the wrong place.  And how exactly should the
AEAD interface know when to wait anyway, given that someone could ask to encrypt
0 bytes to get the authentication tag for that?
