Hi,

Looks good, my tests (below) PASS-ed.

I updated reproducer at [1] to try more than just single scenario. It
now tries thousands of combinations with different starting offset within
page and sizes of data chunks.

I also ran a test at [2], which is comparing hashes produced by
kernel with hashes produced by user-space utilities (e.g. 'sha1sum').
This test also PASS-ed.
