[ Upstream commit b81e286ba154a4e0f01a94d99179a97f4ba3e396 ]

As algorithm testing is carried out without holding the main crypto
lock, it is always possible for the algorithm to go away during the
test.

So before crypto_alg_tested updates the status of the tested alg,
it checks whether it's still on the list of all algorithms.  This
is inaccurate because it may be off the main list but still on the
list of algorithms to be removed.

Updating the algorithm status is safe per se as the larval still
holds a reference to it.  However, killing spawns of other algorithms
that are of lower priority is clearly a deficiency as it adds
unnecessary churn.

Fix the test by checking whether the algorithm is dead.

The function crypto_drop_spawn expects to be called in process
context.  However, when an instance is unregistered while it still
has active users, the last user may cause the instance to be freed
in atomic context.

Fix this by delaying the freeing to a work queue.

<title>crypto: engine - fix crypto_queue backlog handling</title>

<content type='text'>
CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG tells the crypto driver that it should
internally backlog requests until the crypto hw's queue becomes
full. At that point, crypto_engine backlogs the request and returns
-EBUSY. Calling driver such as dm-crypt then waits until the
complete() function is called with a status of -EINPROGRESS before
sending a new request.

The problem lies in the call to complete() with a value of -EINPROGRESS
that is made when a backlog item is present on the queue. The call is
done before the successful execution of the crypto request. In the case
that do_one_request() returns &lt; 0 and the retry support is available,
the request is put back in the queue. This leads upper drivers to send
a new request even if the queue is still full.

The problem can be reproduced by doing a large dd into a crypto
dm-crypt device. This is pretty easy to see when using
Freescale CAAM crypto driver and SWIOTLB dma. Since the actual amount
of requests that can be hold in the queue is unlimited we get IOs error
and dma allocation.

The fix is to call complete with a value of -EINPROGRESS only if
the request is not enqueued back in crypto_queue. This is done
by calling complete() later in the code. In order to delay the decision,
crypto_queue is modified to correctly set the backlog pointer
when a request is enqueued back.

<title>crypto: api - Demote BUG_ON() in crypto_unregister_alg() to a WARN_ON()</title>

The crypto_unregister_alg() function expects callers to ensure that any
algorithm that is unregistered has a refcnt of exactly 1, and issues a
BUG_ON() if this is not the case. However, there are in fact drivers that
will call crypto_unregister_alg() without ensuring that the refcnt has been
lowered first, most notably on system shutdown. This causes the BUG_ON() to
trigger, which prevents a clean shutdown and hangs the system.

To avoid such hangs on shutdown, demote the BUG_ON() in
crypto_unregister_alg() to a WARN_ON() with early return. Cc stable because
this problem was observed on a 6.2 kernel, cf the link below.

Move all stat code specific to rng into the rng code.

While we're at it, change the stats so that bytes and counts
are always incremented even in case of error.  This allows the
reference counting to be removed as we can now increment the
counters prior to the operation.

After the operation we simply increase the error count if necessary.
This is safe as errors can only occur synchronously (or rather,
the existing code already ignored asynchronous errors which are
only visible to the callback function).
