In public_key_verify_signature(), if akcipher_request_alloc() fails, we return -ENOMEM. But that error code was set 25 lines above, and by accident someone could easily insert new code in between that assigns to 'ret', which would introduce a signature verification bypass. Make the code clearer by moving the -ENOMEM down to where it is used. Additionally, the callers of public_key_verify_signature() only consider a negative return value to be an error. This means that if any positive return value is accidentally introduced deeper in the call stack (e.g. 'return EBADMSG' instead of 'return -EBADMSG' somewhere in RSA), signature verification will be bypassed. Make things more robust by having public_key_verify_signature() warn about positive errors and translate them into -EINVAL.
