Antoine Tenart 8933259042 crypto: inside-secure - do not rely on the hardware last bit for result descriptors
When performing a transformation the hardware is given result
descriptors to save the result data. Those result descriptors are
batched using a 'first' and a 'last' bit. There are cases were more
descriptors than needed are given to the engine, leading to the engine
only using some of them, and not setting the last bit on the last
descriptor we gave. This causes issues were the driver and the hardware
aren't in sync anymore about the number of result descriptors given (as
the driver do not give a pool of descriptor to use for any
transformation, but a pool of descriptors to use *per* transformation).

This patch fixes it by attaching the number of given result descriptors
to the requests, and by using this number instead of the 'last' bit
found on the descriptors to process them.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
