Subject: macsec: ensure rx_sa is set when validation is disabled
From: Beniamino Galvani <bgalvani@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit e3a3b626010a14fe067f163c2c43409d5afcd2a9 ]
macsec_decrypt() is not called when validation is disabled and so
macsec_skb_cb(skb)->rx_sa is not set; but it is used later in
macsec_post_decrypt(), ensure that it's always initialized.
Fixes: c09440f7dcb3 ("macsec: introduce IEEE 802.1AE driver")
