[PATCH] macsec: defer RX SA cleanup from RCU callback to workqueue

[alexjlzheng]

From: Jinliang Zheng <alexjlzheng@xxxxxxxxxxx>

crypto_free_aead() can call vunmap() internally (e.g. via
dma_free_attrs() in hardware crypto drivers like hisi_sec2), which
must not be called from softirq context.

free_rxsa() is an RCU callback and therefore runs in softirq context,
causing a kernel crash when the underlying AEAD implementation
performs DMA unmapping during tfm destruction:

  vunmap+0x4c/0x70
  __iommu_dma_free+0xd0/0x138
  dma_free_attrs+0xf4/0x100
  sec_aead_exit+0x64/0xb8 [hisi_sec2]
  crypto_destroy_tfm+0x98/0x110
  free_rxsa+0x28/0x50 [macsec]
  rcu_do_batch+0x184/0x460
  rcu_core+0xf4/0x1f8
  handle_softirqs+0x118/0x330

Fix this by splitting free_rxsa() into two parts: the RCU callback
now only schedules a work item, and the actual resource release
(crypto_free_aead, free_percpu, kfree) is done in a workqueue
handler running in process context.

Add a destroy_work field to struct macsec_rx_sa and initialize it
in init_rx_sa().
