crypto: chtls - fix a missing-check bug

In do_chtls_setsockopt(), the tls crypto info is first copied from the
poiner 'optval' in userspace and saved to 'tmp_crypto_info'. Then the
'version' of the crypto info is checked. If the version is not as expected,
i.e., TLS_1_2_VERSION, error code -ENOTSUPP is returned to indicate that
the provided crypto info is not supported yet. Then, the 'cipher_type'
field of the 'tmp_crypto_info' is also checked to see if it is
TLS_CIPHER_AES_GCM_128. If it is, the whole struct of
tls12_crypto_info_aes_gcm_128 is copied from the pointer 'optval' and then
the function chtls_setkey() is invoked to set the key.

Given that the 'optval' pointer resides in userspace, a malicious userspace
process can race to change the data pointed by 'optval' between the two
copies. For example, a user can provide a crypto info with TLS_1_2_VERSION
and TLS_CIPHER_AES_GCM_128. After the first copy, the user can modify the
'version' and the 'cipher_type' fields to any versions and/or cipher types
that are not allowed. This way, the user can bypass the checks, inject
bad data to the kernel, cause chtls_setkey() to set a wrong key or other
issues.

This patch reuses the data copied in the first try so as to ensure these
checks will not be bypassed.
