commit 717f4b1c52 upstream.
Some asynchronous cipher implementations may use DMA. The stack may
be mapped in the vmalloc area that doesn't support DMA. Therefore,
the cipher request and initialization vector shouldn't be on the
stack.
Fix this by allocating the request and iv with kmalloc.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
