In commit c637c1035534867b85b78b453c38c495b58e2c5a ("tipc: resolve race
problem at unicast message reception") we introduced a time limit
for how long the function tipc_sk_eneque() would be allowed to execute
its loop. Unfortunately, the test for when this limit is passed was put
in the wrong place, resulting in a lost message when the test is true.
We fix this by moving the test to before we dequeue the next buffer
from the input queue.
