Subject: [25/27] crypto: ghash - Avoid null pointer dereference if no key is set

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Nick Bowler <nbowler@...iptictech.com>

commit 7ed47b7d142ec99ad6880bbbec51e9f12b3af74c upstream.

The ghash_update function passes a pointer to gf128mul_4k_lle which will
be NULL if ghash_setkey is not called or if the most recent call to
ghash_setkey failed to allocate memory.  This causes an oops.  Fix this
up by returning an error code in the null case.

This is trivially triggered from unprivileged userspace through the
AF_ALG interface by simply writing to the socket without setting a key.

The ghash_final function has a similar issue, but triggering it requires
a memory allocation failure in ghash_setkey _after_ at least one
successful call to ghash_update.
