3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit b82ce24426a4071da9529d726057e4e642948667 upstream.
It has been reported that sha1-avx2 can cause page faults by reading
beyond the end of the input. This patch disables it until it can be
fixed.
Fixes: 7c1da8d0d046 ("crypto: sha - SHA1 transform x86_64 AVX2")
