[05/08] [IPSEC]: Do not hold state lock while checking size

[Greg KH]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

This patch from Herbert Xu fixes a deadlock with IPsec.
When an ICMP frag. required is sent and the ICMP message
needs the same SA as the packet that caused it the state
will be locked twice.

[IPSEC]: Do not hold state lock while checking size.

This can elicit ICMP message output and thus result in a
deadlock.
