[PATCH] rfc4106, Intel, AES-NI: Don't leak memory in rfc4106_set_hash_subkey().

[Jesper Juhl]

There's a small memory leak in 
arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel_glue.c::rfc4106_set_hash_subkey(). If the call 
to kmalloc() fails and returns NULL then the memory allocated previously 
by ablkcipher_request_alloc() is not freed when we leave the function.

I could have just added a call to ablkcipher_request_free() before we 
return -ENOMEM, but that started to look too much like the code we 
already had at the end of the function, so I chose instead to rework the 
code a bit so that there are now a few labels at the end that we goto when 
various allocations fail, so we don't have to repeat the same blocks of 
code (this also reduces the object code size slightly).

Please review and consider merging.

You are welcome. But I believe I made a mistake in that patch. I looked at 
it again and I'm convinced that the 'out' label should not exist. The 
jump to it will still leak 'ctr_tfm' - don't you agree?

I believe the patch should look like this instead:

The current cryptodev-2.6 tree should do.

Fix up previous patch that attempted to fix a mem leak in 
rfc4106_set_hash_subkey. The previous patch was flawed in that the 'goto 
out' would still leak.

I don't think such optimalization is worth doing... original code is
as good but shorter and less complex...

Since it's identical to the patch I posted except for the moving of the 
kfree() which (IMHO) is a minor detail, I hope you can use my sign-off so 
we can move along and get the patch merged..

Hi Jesper,
Thanks, but I think there is still a problem here. You don't want to kfree req_data
when the kmalloc failed. I think it should look as follows.  
Are you ok with this?

Fine by me.

I was aware of the kfree(NULL) thing, but desided to leave it as is for 
two reasons - 1) kfree(NULL) is harmless and this is an error path, so the 
extra function call doesn't matter much. 2) I wanted to preserve 
deallocations in the reverse order of the allocations. But sure, moving 
that kfree is a tiny optimization of the error path, so I'm fine with it.
