If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jussi Kivilinna commit 9efade1b3e981f5064f9db9ca971b4dc7557ae42 upstream. cryptd_queue_worker attempts to prevent simultaneous accesses to crypto workqueue by cryptd_enqueue_request using preempt_disable/preempt_enable. However cryptd_enqueue_request might be called from softirq context, so add local_bh_disable/local_bh_enable to prevent data corruption and panics.
