Subject: Crypto Fixes for 4.4

Hi Linus:

This push fixes a bug in the algif_skcipher interface that can
trigger a kernel WARN_ON from user-space.  It does so by using
the new skcipher interface which unlike the previous ablkcipher
does not need to create extra geniv objects which is what was
used to trigger the WARN_ON.


Please pull from
