This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit f898c522f0e9ac9f3177d0762b76e2ab2d2cf9c0 ]

This patch removes a bogus BUG_ON in the ablkcipher path that
triggers when the destination buffer is different from the source
buffer and is scattered.
