Hi Herbert, This patch fixes the reported BUG reliably that I was able to create with my (faulty) libkcapi test code. However, I am yet unable to pinpoint the code that allocates an SG without an associated page that would trigger the BUG. In any case, if you approve, I would recommend that this patch should go to 4.8 and to stable as well. ---8<--- Ensure that put_page is only invoked on pages that were used by algif_skcipher.
