Fixed problems

  • Fix some failures while unlocking the Persistent Storage. (#19728)

    Sometimes, upgrading the cryptographic parameters of the Persistent Storage was taking too long and made unlocking the Persistent Storage fail. We allowed the upgrade to take more time before reporting a failure.

    Please keep reporting errors using WhisperBack if you have problems unlocking your Persistent Storage.
