crypto: algif_skcipher - only call put_page on referenced and used pages
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
For asynchronous operation, SGs are allocated without a page mapped to
them or with a page that is not used (ref-counted). If the SGL is freed,
the code must only call put_page for an SG if there was a page assigned
and ref-counted in the first place.

This fixes a kernel crash when using io_submit with more than one iocb
using the sendmsg and sendpage (vmsplice/splice) interface.
