Subject: [PATCH] AF_ALG: register completely initialized request in list

Hi,

May I ask to check whether this patch fixes the issue? I cannot re-create
the issue with the reproducter. Yet, as far as I understand, you try to
induce errors which shall validate whether the error code paths are correct.

The fix below should ensure this now.

Thanks a lot.

Subject: [PATCH] AF_ALG: Initialize sg_num_bytes in error code path

The RX SGL in processing is already registered with the RX SGL tracking
list to support proper cleanup. The cleanup code path uses the
sg_num_bytes variable which must therefore be always initialized, even
in the error code path.
