The arm64 gcm-aes-ce algorithm is failing the extra crypto self-tests following my patches to test the !may_use_simd() code paths, which previously were untested. The problem is that in the !may_use_simd() case, an odd number of AES blocks can be processed within each step of the skcipher_walk. However, the skcipher_walk is being done with a "stride" of 2 blocks and is advanced by an even number of blocks after each step. This causes the encryption to produce the wrong ciphertext and authentication tag, and causes the decryption to incorrectly fail. Fix it by only processing an even number of blocks per step.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
