[PATCH v6 10/18] x86/power/64: Remove VLA usage

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2018-07-24 16:51:36
Also in: dm-devel, linux-block, linux-crypto, linux-pm, linux-wireless, lkml
Subsystem: hibernation (aka software suspend, aka swsusp), the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: "Rafael J. Wysocki", Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
removes the discouraged use of AHASH_REQUEST_ON_STACK by switching to
shash directly and allocating the descriptor in heap memory (which should
be fine: the tfm has already been allocated there too).
