I moved the check since it made it more explicit that the lengths in the
memcmp() are the same. If we want to use EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE, I think the
check should stay where I moved it, otherwise we have to check lengths
twice, which seems a bit much.

Using EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE and a length parameter is a bit annoying since we
run into signedness issues due to API inconsistency.
