Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 044/130] crypto: ixp4xx - Remove bogus BUG_ON on scattered dst buffer

3.16.7-ckt17 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au>

commit f898c522f0e9ac9f3177d0762b76e2ab2d2cf9c0 upstream.

This patch removes a bogus BUG_ON in the ablkcipher path that
triggers when the destination buffer is different from the source
buffer and is scattered.
