I think you need to split this up per driver with a proper explanation and a
"Fixes:" tag for each driver.
Also, these bugs should have been detected by the crypto self-tests already,
since they test having preemption disabled and CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP cleared.
Can you double check whether these are all valid fixes? One thing to watch out
for is that CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP only applies to the function call like
crypto_skcipher_encrypt() itself. If the implementation is asynchronous and the
request gets processed in the background (i.e. if crypto_skcipher_encrypt()
returns -EINPROGRESS), the background work doesn't have to honor
CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP.
