The qce crypto driver appends an extra entry to the dst sgl, to maintain
private state information.
When the gcm driver sends requests to the ctr skcipher, it passes the
authentication tag after the actual crypto payload, but it must not be
touched.
Commit 1336c2221bee ("crypto: qce - save a sg table slot for result
buf") limited the destination sgl to avoid overwriting the
authentication tag but it assumed the tag would be in a separate sgl
entry.
This is not always the case, so it is better to limit the length of the
destination buffer to req->cryptlen before appending the result buf.

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.
