-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. --------------------- From: Sebastian Siewior [ Upstream commit: 6212f2c7f70c591efb0d9f3d50ad29112392fee2 ] The XTS blockmode uses a copy of the IV which is saved on the stack and may or may not be properly aligned. If it is not, it will break hardware cipher like the geode or padlock. This patch encrypts the IV in place so we don't have to worry about alignment.
