4.3-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Gstir <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit cb8affb55c7e64816f3effcd9b2fc3268c016fac upstream. Using non-constant time memcmp() makes the verification of the authentication tag in the decrypt path vulnerable to timing attacks. Fix this by using crypto_memneq() instead.
