[PATCH v2] crypto: vmx - Fix sleep-in-atomic bugs

This patch fixes sleep-in-atomic bugs in AES-CBC and AES-XTS VMX
implementations. The problem is that the blkcipher_* functions should
not be called in atomic context.

The bugs can be reproduced via the AF_ALG interface by trying to
encrypt/decrypt sufficiently large buffers (at least 64 KiB) using the
VMX implementations of 'cbc(aes)' or 'xts(aes)'. Such operations then
trigger BUG in crypto_yield():

Still untested, please test and review if possible.

Changes in v2:
- fix leaving preemtption, etc. disabled when leaving the function
  (I switched to the more obvious and less efficient variant for the
  sake of clarity.)
