[PATCH v2] crypto: af_alg - check possible NULL pointer

From: Jiasheng Jiang
Date: Thu Dec 30 2021 - 20:41:07 EST


Because of the possible alloc failure of the alloc_page(), it could
return NULL pointer.
And there is a check below the sg_assign_page().
But it will be more logical to move the NULL check before the
sg_assign_page().

Changelog:

v1 -> v2

* Change 1. Move the previous check in front of sg_assign_page().
