Since passing __GFP_ZERO to skb_page_frag_refill() hides this problem,
I think that crypto layer is reading up to block size when requested
size is not multiple of block size.

Since block cipher needs to read up to block size, someone has to initialize
padding bytes. I guess that crypto API caller is responsible for allocating
and initializing padding bytes, otherwise such crypto API caller will fail to
encrypt/decrypt last partial bytes which are not multiple of cipher's block
size.

Which function in this report is responsible for initializing padding bytes?
