As I responded in the other thread
(https://lkml.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20200128023455.GC960@sol.localdomain/),
I'm not sure this is really a bug.  There's a length passed along with the
scatterlist, and my understanding is that algorithms aren't supposed to look
beyond that length.  So the scatterlist end marker isn't really relevant.
