Subject[PATCH 4.14 046/173] crypto: api - Check spawn->alg under lock in crypto_drop_spawn
Date
From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

commit 7db3b61b6bba4310f454588c2ca6faf2958ad79f upstream.

We need to check whether spawn->alg is NULL under lock as otherwise
the algorithm could be removed from under us after we have checked
it and found it to be non-NULL. This could cause us to remove the
spawn from a non-existent list.

Fixes: 7ede5a5ba55a ("crypto: api - Fix crypto_drop_spawn crash...")
