    [CRYPTO] blkcipher: Fix handling of kmalloc page straddling · e4630f9f

    The function blkcipher_get_spot tries to return a buffer of
    the specified length that does not straddle a page.  It has
    an off-by-one bug so it may advance a page unnecessarily.
    
    What's worse, one of its callers doesn't provide a buffer
    that's sufficiently long for this operation.
    
    This patch fixes both problems.  Thanks to Bob Gilligan for
    diagnosing this problem and providing a fix.
