Hi,
It turns out that beneath the first bug [1] there was another one
hiding. It seems to happen only on the s390x architecture when running
the following libkcapi [2] reproducer:
kcapi -x 2 -s -c "gcm(aes)" -i 0d92aa861746b324f20ee6b7 \
-k f4a6a5e5f2066f6dd9ec6fc5169c29043560ef595c9e81e76f42d29212cc581c \
-a "" -t 5f24c68cbe6f32c29652442bf5d483ad -q ""
Frequently (but not always) it triggers an oops like this one:
[ 3986.766763] Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference in virtual

This time the regression was bisected to:
commit c1abe6f570aff4b6d396dc551e60570d2f50bd79
Author: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue Jun 6 14:08:52 2023 +0100
crypto: af_alg: Use extract_iter_to_sg() to create scatterlists
I can't see what the problem is with the commit, so I'm reporting here
hoping that David or someone else can pick it up from here.
Cheers,
Ondrej
