Hi Herbert,

Hmm, this patch does not apply against the current tree.  Is this
a stable-only patch?

This would be a stable-only patch. With the overhauling of the AF_ALG memory 
handling, this is a no-issue any more.

If you want this as a stable-only patch, you need to resend it and
justify it a bunch as to why it isn't in Linus's tree as well.

thanks,
