Thanks.

As now the AIO code path is updated, the bug that I was reporting last 
September allowing to crash the kernel via AF_ALG is fixed.

As the patch is very invasive, I am not sure that patch set should be sent to 
stable. How do you propose we fix the crash bug in older kernels that are due 
to memory management problems in the AIO code path?

Ciao
Stephan
