Subject: [PATCH] crypto: salsa20 - fix blkcipher_walk API usage

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com>

When asked to encrypt or decrypt 0 bytes, both the generic and x86
implementations of Salsa20 crash in blkcipher_walk_done(), either when
doing 'kfree(walk->buffer)' or 'free_page((unsigned long)walk->page)',
because walk->buffer and walk->page have not been initialized.

The bug is that Salsa20 is calling blkcipher_walk_done() even when
nothing is in 'walk.nbytes'.  But blkcipher_walk_done() is only meant to
be called when a nonzero number of bytes have been provided.

The broken code is part of an optimization that tries to make only one
call to salsa20_encrypt_bytes() to process inputs that are not evenly
divisible by 64 bytes.  To fix the bug, just remove this "optimization"
and use the blkcipher_walk API the same way all the other users do.

Reproducer:

    #include <linux/if_alg.h>
    #include <sys/socket.h>
    #include <unistd.h>

    int main()
    {
            int algfd, reqfd;
            struct sockaddr_alg addr = {
                    .salg_type = "skcipher",
                    .salg_name = "salsa20",
            };
            char key[16] = { 0 };

            algfd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
            bind(algfd, (void *)&addr, sizeof(addr));
            reqfd = accept(algfd, 0, 0);
            setsockopt(algfd, SOL_ALG, ALG_SET_KEY, key, sizeof(key));
            read(reqfd, key, sizeof(key));
    }
