Syzbot was able to trigger use of uninitialized memory in af_alg_free_resources. Bug is caused by missing initialization of rsgl->sgl.need_unpin before adding to rsgl_list. Then in case of extract_iter_to_sg() failure, rsgl is left with uninitialized need_unpin which is read during clean up BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in af_alg_free_sg crypto/af_alg.c:545 [inline] BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in af_alg_free_areq_sgls crypto/af_alg.c:778 [inline] BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in af_alg_free_resources+0x3d1/0xf60 crypto/af_alg.c:1117 af_alg_free_sg crypto/af_alg.c:545 [inline] af_alg_free_areq_sgls crypto/af_alg.c:778 [inline] af_alg_free_resources+0x3d1/0xf60 crypto/af_alg.c:1117 _skcipher_recvmsg crypto/algif_skcipher.c:144 [inline] ...
