Re: Another regression in the af_alg series (s390x-specific)

Well, I can reproduce it fairly easily.  It seems to be:

	static inline void scatterwalk_start(struct scatter_walk *walk,
					     struct scatterlist *sg)
	{
		walk->sg = sg;
		walk->offset = sg->offset;  <----
	}

Presumably sg is rubbish.

Dump of assembler code for function gcm_walk_start:
   0x0000000000000038 <+0>:     jgnop   0x38 <gcm_walk_start>
   0x000000000000003e <+6>:     xc      8(64,%r2),8(%r2)
   0x0000000000000044 <+12>:    st      %r4,32(%r2)
   0x0000000000000048 <+16>:    stg     %r3,0(%r2)
   0x000000000000004e <+22>:    l       %r1,8(%r3)
   0x0000000000000052 <+26>:    st      %r1,8(%r2)
   0x0000000000000056 <+30>:    jg      0x56 <gcm_walk_start+30>

I'm don't know much about s390x assembly, but I'm guessing %r2 has "walk" and
%r3 has "sg".

I'm not sure what to make of the 0026070200000000.
