Based on the sketch  made the handle_pqap() should only handle the
arch.crypto.rwsem.

When it calls the hook it gets the matrix dev

This sets the lock order as always: rwsem then matrix_dev

Of the other two places:

Obviously correct

This is inverted

Just move the down_write up two lines

What is missing?
