This looks better, thanks.

This patch copies the IV into the extended descriptor when iv is not
a valid linear address.

Though I am not sure the checks in place are enough.

  v3: Using struct edesc buffer.

  v2: Using per-request context.

A more precise condition would be (!is_vmalloc_addr || is_vmalloc_addr(iv))

Sorry for the typo, I meant:
(!virt_addr_valid(iv) || is_vmalloc_addr(iv))

As far as I know, virt_addr_valid() means the address is in the linear memory space. So it cannot be a vmalloc_addr if it is a linear space addr, can it ?

At least, it is that way on powerpc which is the arch embedding the talitos crypto engine. virt_addr_valid() means we are under max_pfn, while VMALLOC_START is above max_pfn.

It matches the checks in debug_dma_map_single() helper, though I am not sure
they are enough to rule out all exceptions of DMA API.
