Subject: [PATCH 3.12 10/62] crypto: ccm - Fix handling of zero plaintext when computing mac

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

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

From: Horia Geanta <horia.geanta@...escale.com>

commit 5638cabf3e4883f38dfb246c30980cebf694fbda upstream.

There are cases when cryptlen can be zero in crypto_ccm_auth():
-encryptiom: input scatterlist length is zero (no plaintext)
-decryption: input scatterlist contains only the mac
plus the condition of having different source and destination buffers
(or else scatterlist length = max(plaintext_len, ciphertext_len)).

These are not handled correctly, leading to crashes like:
