crypto: aesni - don't use GFP_ATOMIC allocation if the request doesn't cross a page in gcm
This patch fixes gcmaes_crypt_by_sg so that it won't use memory allocation if the data doesn't cross a page boundary. Authenticated encryption may be used by dm-crypt. If the encryption or decryption fails, it would result in I/O error and filesystem corruption. The function gcmaes_crypt_by_sg is using GFP_ATOMIC allocation that can fail anytime. This patch fixes the logic so that it won't attempt the failing allocation if the data doesn't cross a page boundary.
