This was probably caused by taking the path where areq->tsgl could not be
allocated.  (syzkaller probably reached it after injecting a memory allocation
failure.)  The following should fix it:

Subject: [PATCH] crypto: af_alg - fix NULL pointer dereference in
 af_alg_free_areq_sgls()

If allocating the ->tsgl member of 'struct af_alg_async_req' failed,
during cleanup we dereferenced the NULL ->tsgl pointer in
af_alg_free_areq_sgls(), because ->tsgl_entries was nonzero.

Fix it by only freeing the ->tsgl list if it is non-NULL.

This affected both algif_skcipher and algif_aead.

Fixes: e870456d8e7c ("crypto: algif_skcipher - overhaul memory management")
Fixes: d887c52d6ae4 ("crypto: algif_aead - overhaul memory management")
