Subject: crypto: x86/sha256-mb - fix panic due to unaligned access
From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 5dfeaac15f2b1abb5a53c9146041c7235eb9aa04 upstream.
struct sha256_ctx_mgr allocated in sha256_mb_mod_init() via kzalloc()
and later passed in sha256_mb_flusher_mgr_flush_avx2() function where
instructions vmovdqa used to access the struct. vmovdqa requires
16-bytes aligned argument, but nothing guarantees that struct
sha256_ctx_mgr will have that alignment. Unaligned vmovdqa will
generate GP fault.
Fix this by replacing vmovdqa with vmovdqu which doesn't have alignment
requirements.
