Bug of dm-crypt?

Hi, Herbert,

I had ever heard from you that the only thing guaranteed in the
completion function of async ablkcipher cryption is the req->data has
the value you set before. The request pointer itself may be changed. But
in dm-crypt, I found they rely on request pointer in completion
function: kcryptd_async_done. This makes my AES-NI cryptd usage panic.

Do you think that is a bug?

Best Regards,
Huang Ying
