crypto: wait for a full jiffy in do_xor_speed

In the existing do_xor_speed(), there is no guarantee that we actually run do_2() for a full jiffy. We get the current jiffy, then run do_2() until the next jiffy. Instead, let's get the current jiffy, then wait until the next jiffy to start our test. Signed-off-by: Jim Kukunas <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <[email protected]>
