[PATCH] crypto: aesni: add setkey for driver-gcm-aes-aesni

From: Stephan Mueller
Date: Mon Jan 19 2015 - 00:25:48 EST


The cipher registered as __driver-gcm-aes-aesni is never intended
to be used directly by any caller. Instead it is a service mechanism to
rfc4106-gcm-aesni.

The kernel crypto API unconditionally calls the registered setkey
function. In case a caller erroneously uses __driver-gcm-aes-aesni a
call to crypto_aead_setkey will cause a NULL pointer dereference without
this patch.
