4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@xxxxxxx> commit e5bde04ccce64d808f8b00a489a1fe5825d285cb upstream. In multiple functions, the algorithm fields are read after its reference is dropped through crypto_mod_put. In this case, the algorithm memory may be freed, resulting in use-after-free bugs. This patch delays the put operation until the algorithm is never used.
