That patch fixes the crash. Thanks

Just FYI: when testing rfc4106(gcm(aes-aesni)) with the old givcipher API, I 
got a crash in my code invoking the cipher which used to work in older kernels 
and which works with the C implementations. So, there must be some change in 
how givcipher is treated by the AESNI implementation.

As this API is sunset now, shall I dig deeper or shall we simply deactivate 
the API entirely?
