Ok, that's what I expected.

The other patch fixed the unwinder failure mode to be the above
(harmless) unwinder warning, instead of a disruptive KASAN failure.

This patch fixes the specific underlying crypto unwinding metadata
issue.

I'll definitely be sending both fixes.  The improved failure mode patch
will come first because it's more urgent and lower risk.
