IPsec: do not ignore crypto err in ah4 input
[ Upstream commit ebd89a2d0675f1325c2be5b7576fd8cb7e8defd0 ] ah4 input processing uses the asynchronous hash crypto API which supplies an error code as part of the operation completion but the error code was being ignored. Treat a crypto API error indication as a verification failure. While a crypto API reported error would almost certainly result in a memcpy of the digest failing anyway and thus the security risk seems minor, performing a memory compare on what might be uninitialized memory is wrong.
