[PATCH 1/2] crypto/x509: Fix unaligned access in x509_get_sig_params()
From: Sowmini Varadhan
Date: Mon Oct 19 2015 - 17:24:47 EST
x509_get_sig_params() has the same code pattern as the one in
pkcs7_verify() that is fixed by commit 62f57d05e287 ("crypto: pkcs7 - Fix
unaligned access in pkcs7_verify()") so apply a similar fix here: make
sure that desc is pointing at an algined value past the digest_size,
and take alignment values into consideration when doing kzalloc()
