  Log:
  We must synchronize access to cc_qblocked, because there could be a race
  where crypto_invoke() returns ERESTART and before we set cc_qblocked to 1,
  crypto_unblock() is called and sets it to 0. This way we mark device as
  blocked forever.
  
  Fix it by not setting cc_qblocked in the fast path and by protecting
  crypto_invoke() in the crypto_proc thread with CRYPTO_Q_LOCK().
  This won't slow things down, because there is no contention - we have
  only one crypto thread. Actually it can be slightly faster, because we
  save two atomic ops per crypto request.
  The fast code path remains lock-less.
