commit f66665c09ab489a11ca490d6a82df57cfc1bea3e upstream.

In eCryptfs, we failed to verify that the authentication token keys are
not revoked before dereferencing their payloads, which is problematic
because the payload of a revoked key is NULL.  request_key() *does* skip
revoked keys, but there is still a window where the key can be revoked
before we acquire the key semaphore.

Fix it by updating ecryptfs_get_key_payload_data() to return
-EKEYREVOKED if the key payload is NULL.  For completeness we check this
for "encrypted" keys as well as "user" keys, although encrypted keys
cannot be revoked currently.

Alternatively we could use key_validate(), but since we'll also need to
fix ecryptfs_get_key_payload_data() to validate the payload length, it
seems appropriate to just check the payload pointer.

Fixes: 237fead61998 ("[PATCH] ecryptfs: fs/Makefile and fs/Kconfig")

If the underlying dentry doesn't have -&gt;d_revalidate(), there's no need to
force dropping out of RCU mode.  All we need for that is to make freeing
ecryptfs_dentry_info RCU-delayed.

<title>eCryptfs: Use the ablkcipher crypto API</title>

Make the switch from the blkcipher kernel crypto interface to the
ablkcipher interface.

encrypt_scatterlist() and decrypt_scatterlist() now use the ablkcipher
interface but, from the eCryptfs standpoint, still treat the crypto
operation as a synchronous operation. They submit the async request and
then wait until the operation is finished before they return. Most of
the changes are contained inside those two functions.

Despite waiting for the completion of the crypto operation, the
ablkcipher interface provides performance increases in most cases when
used on AES-NI capable hardware.

Pull ecryptfs fixes from Tyler Hicks:
 "Minor code cleanups and new Kconfig option to disable /dev/ecryptfs

  The code cleanups fix up W=1 compiler warnings and some unnecessary
  checks.  The new Kconfig option, defaulting to N, allows the rarely
  used eCryptfs kernel to userspace communication channel to be compiled
  out.  This may be the first step in it being eventually removed."

Hmm.  I'm not sure whether these should be called "fixes", and it
probably should have gone in the merge window.  But I'll let it slide.

When the userspace messaging (for the less common case of userspace key
wrap/unwrap via ecryptfsd) is not needed, allow eCryptfs to build with
it removed. This saves on kernel code size and reduces potential attack
surface by removing the /dev/ecryptfs node.
