Hi Herbert,

I bisected this to commit f1c131b45410 ("crypto: xts - Convert to
skcipher"). The s5p-sss driver stays the same... but the xts changes and
as a result we have a NULL pointer dereference (actually of value
00000004):
[   18.930195] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004
...
[   18.972325] [<c0313c98>] (post_crypt) from [<c031408c>] (decrypt_done+0x4c/0x54)
[   18.972343] [<c031408c>] (decrypt_done) from [<c056309c>] (s5p_aes_interrupt+0x1bc/0x208)
[   18.972360] [<c056309c>] (s5p_aes_interrupt) from [<c0164930>] (irq_thread_fn+0x1c/0x54)

Any hints?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
