Today, tls_sw_recvmsg is capable of using asynchronous mode to handle
application data TLS records. Moreover, it assumes that if the cipher
can be handled asynchronously, then all packets will be processed
asynchronously.
However, this assumption is not always true. Specifically, for AES-GCM
in TLS1.2, it causes data corruption, and breaks user applications.
This patch fixes this problem by separating the async capability from
the decryption operation result.
Fixes: c0ab4732d4 ("net/tls: Do not use async crypto for non-data records")

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.
