Subject: [v2.6.34-stable 212/213] crypto: sha512 - Fix byte counter overflow in SHA-512

From: Kent Yoder <key@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

commit 25c3d30c918207556ae1d6e663150ebdf902186b upstream.

The current code only increments the upper 64 bits of the SHA-512 byte
counter when the number of bytes hashed happens to hit 2^64 exactly.

This patch increments the upper 64 bits whenever the lower 64 bits
overflows.
