I think this is a problem for almost all the crypto code. Due to AF_ALG, both
the source and destination buffers can be userspace pages that were gotten with
get_user_pages(). Such pages can be concurrently modified, not just by the
kernel but also by userspace.

I'm not sure what can be done about this.
