crypto: af_alg: Pin pages rather than ref'ing if appropriate
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Convert AF_ALG to use iov_iter_extract_pages() instead of
iov_iter_get_pages().  This will pin pages or leave them unaltered rather
than getting a ref on them as appropriate to the iterator.

The pages need to be pinned for DIO-read rather than having refs taken on
them to prevent VM copy-on-write from malfunctioning during a concurrent
fork() (the result of the I/O would otherwise end up only visible to the
child process and not the parent).
