4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit f3ad587070d6bd961ab942b3fd7a85d00dfc934b upstream. crypto_gcm_setkey() was using wait_for_completion_interruptible() to wait for completion of async crypto op but if a signal occurs it may return before DMA ops of HW crypto provider finish, thus corrupting the data buffer that is kfree'ed in this case. Resolve this by using wait_for_completion() instead.
