The first patch is the same as the one committed for crypto/xts.c applied a few days ago. (commit 5125e4e867ab ("crypto: xts - Fix an error handling path in 'create()'") in /git/herbert/crypto-2.6.git) The 2nd one is a pure speculation from me. The create function in 'crypto/xts.c' and 'crypto/lrw.c' look very similar. However, there is one more sanity check in xts. This patch proposes to add the same test in lrw. Not sure at all if correct! I just send it for consistency.
