crypto: af_alg - Fix missing initialisation affecting gcm-aes-s390
[ Upstream commit 6a4b8aa0a916b39a39175584c07222434fa6c6ef ]
Fix af_alg_alloc_areq() to initialise areq->first_rsgl.sgl.sgt.sgl to point
to the scatterlist array in areq->first_rsgl.sgl.sgl.
Without this, the gcm-aes-s390 driver will oops when it tries to do
gcm_walk_start() on req->dst because req->dst is set to the value of
areq->first_rsgl.sgl.sgl by _aead_recvmsg() calling
aead_request_set_crypt().
The problem comes if an empty ciphertext is passed: the loop in
af_alg_get_rsgl() just passes straight out and doesn't set areq->first_rsgl
up.
This isn't a problem on x86_64 using gcmaes_crypt_by_sg() because, as far
as I can tell, that ignores req->dst and only uses req->src[*].
[*] Is this a bug in aesni-intel_glue.c?
The s390x oops looks something like:
Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference in virtual kernel address space
Failing address: 0000000a00000000 TEID: 0000000a00000803
Fault in home space mode while using kernel ASCE.
