It's not necessary there, but we should not make that change be part of
the fix, the fix should be minimal. I'll send a separate patch to move
the skb_copy_bits() call later on.

I think for the fix all you should do is replace the
	crypto_aead_ivsize(ctx->aead_recv));
line with
	prot->iv_size + prot->salt_size);

TLS 1.3 does not send the nonce as part of the record. Instead 
the record number is always used as nonce in crypto.
