Horia Geantă 059d73eea6 crypto: caam - use len instead of nents for bulding HW S/G table
Currently, conversion of SW S/G table into HW S/G layout relies on
nents returned by sg_nents_for_len(sg, len).
However this leaves the possibility of HW S/G referencing more data
then needed: since buffer length in HW S/G entries is filled using
sg_dma_len(sg), the last entry in HW S/G table might have a length
that is bigger than needed for the crypto request.

This way of S/G table conversion is fine, unless after converting a table
more entries have to be appended to the HW S/G table.
In this case, crypto engine would access data from the S/G entry having
the incorrect length, instead of advancing in the S/G table.
This situation doesn't exist, but the upcoming implementation of
IV update for skcipher algorithms needs to add a S/G entry after
req->dst S/G (corresponding to output IV).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
