Subject: crypto: scatterwalk - Fix test in scatterwalk_done

From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5f070e81bee35f1b7bd1477bb223a873ff657803 upstream.

When there is more data to be processed, the current test in
scatterwalk_done may prevent us from calling pagedone even when
we should.

In particular, if we're on an SG entry spanning multiple pages
where the last page is not a full page, we will incorrectly skip
calling pagedone on the second last page.

This patch fixes this by adding a separate test for whether we've
reached the end of a page.
