From: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 0bd294b55a5de442370c29fa53bab17aef3ff318 upstream. In crypt_message, when smb2_get_enc_key returns error, we need to return the error back to the caller. If not, we end up processing the message further, causing a kernel oops due to unwarranted access of memory.
