[PATCH] ah: Don't return NET_XMIT_DROP on input.

[Nick Bowler]

When the ahash driver returns -EBUSY, AH4/6 input functions return
NET_XMIT_DROP, presumably copied from the output code path.  But
returning transmit codes on input doesn't make a lot of sense.
Since NET_XMIT_DROP is a positive int, this gets interpreted as
the next header type (i.e., success).  As that can only end badly,
remove the check.

This appears to be another longstanding issue (since the initial ahash
conversion circa 2.6.33), but there doesn't seem to be many ahash
drivers in the tree that can possibly trigger it.  Furthermore, most
if not all of these drivers require special hardware.
