[PATCH net] rxrpc: Don't put crypto buffers on the stack

From: David Howells
Date: Thu Feb 08 2018 - 10:59:17 EST


Don't put buffers of data to be handed to crypto on the stack as this may
cause an assertion failure in the kernel (see below). Fix this by using an
kmalloc'd buffer instead.

kernel BUG at ./include/linux/scatterlist.h:147!
