[CRYPTO] xcbc: Fix crash with IPsec
When using aes-xcbc-mac for authentication in IPsec, the kernel crashes. It seems this algorithm doesn't account for the space IPsec may make in scatterlist for authtag. Thus when crypto_xcbc_digest_update2() gets called, nbytes may be less than sg[i].length. Since nbytes is an unsigned number, it wraps at the end of the loop allowing us to go back into loop and causing crash in memcpy. I used update function in digest.c to model this fix. Please let me know if it looks ok. Signed-off-by: Joy Latten <latten@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
