Subject: crypto: hash - Fix page length clamping in hash walk

From: Herbert Xu <[email protected]>

commit 13f4bb78cf6a312bbdec367ba3da044b09bf0e29 upstream.

The crypto hash walk code is broken when supplied with an offset greater than or equal to PAGE_SIZE. This patch fixes it by adjusting walk->pg and walk->offset when this happens.
