Thanks for the investigation.
After reverting, two test cases got PASS out of four reported failure cases.
 ltp-crypto-tests:
     * af_alg02 - still failing - Hung and time out
     * af_alg05 - still failing - Hung and time out
  ltp-syscalls-tests:
     * keyctl07 - PASS
     * request_key03 - PASS

Please suggest the way to debug / fix the af_alg02 and af_alg05 failures.
Did you clear the MSG_MORE flag in the final send(2) call before
you call recv(2)?
The source code for the two failing AF_ALG tests is here:

https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/crypto/af_alg02.c
https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/crypto/af_alg05.c

They use read() and write(), not send() and recv().

af_alg02 uses read() to read from a "salsa20" request socket without writing
anything to it.  It is expected that this returns 0, i.e. that behaves like
encrypting an empty message.

af_alg05 uses write() to write 15 bytes to a "cbc(aes-generic)" request socket,
then read() to read 15 bytes.  It is expected that this fails with EINVAL, since
the length is not aligned to the AES block size (16 bytes).
