crypto_gcm_setkey() was using wait_for_completion_interruptible() to wait for completion of async crypto op but if a signal occurs it may return before DMA ops of HW crypto provider finish, thus corrupting the data buffer that is kfree'ed in this case. Resolve this by using wait_for_completion() instead.
