Subject: crypto: algif_aead - Fix bogus request dereference in completion function
From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit e6534aebb26e32fbab14df9c713c65e8507d17e4 upstream.
The algif_aead completion function tries to deduce the aead_request
from the crypto_async_request argument. This is broken because
the API does not guarantee that the same request will be pased to
the completion function. Only the value of req->data can be used
in the completion function.
This patch fixes it by storing a pointer to sk in areq and using
that instead of passing in sk through req->data.
Fixes: 83094e5e9e49 ("crypto: af_alg - add async support to...")
