Thanks for the report.  Sorry this is indeed my fault.  The allocated
buffer is too small as it's missing the size for the request object
itself.

Mike, would you be OK with me picking this fix up and pushing it to
Linus?

Cheers,

A skcipher_request object is made up of struct skcipher_request
followed by a variable-sized trailer.  The allocation of the
skcipher_request and IV in crypt_iv_eboiv_gen is missing the
memory for struct skcipher_request.  Fix it by adding it to
reqsize.
