[PATCH 4.4 70/88] crypto: x86/chacha20 - avoid sleeping with preemption disabled

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

In chacha20-simd, clear the MAY_SLEEP flag in the blkcipher_desc to
prevent sleeping with preemption disabled, under kernel_fpu_begin().

This was fixed upstream incidentally by a large refactoring,
commit 9ae433bc79f9 ("crypto: chacha20 - convert generic and x86
versions to skcipher").  But syzkaller easily trips over this when
running on older kernels, as it's easily reachable via AF_ALG.
Therefore, this patch makes the minimal fix for older kernels.
