Subject: [PATCH 4.14 05/42] af_key: Do not call xfrm_probe_algs in parallel

From: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au>

[ Upstream commit ba953a9d89a00c078b85f4b190bc1dde66fe16b5 ]

When namespace support was added to xfrm/afkey, it caused the
previously single-threaded call to xfrm_probe_algs to become
multi-threaded.  This is buggy and needs to be fixed with a mutex.
