From: Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jor...@oracle.com>
commit ec9c7d19336ee98ecba8de80128aa405c45feebb upstream.
Exercising CPU hotplug on a 5.2 kernel with recent padata fixes from
cryptodev-2.6.git in an 8-CPU kvm guest...
# modprobe tcrypt alg="pcrypt(rfc4106(gcm(aes)))" type=3
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# echo c > /sys/kernel/pcrypt/pencrypt/parallel_cpumask
# modprobe tcrypt mode=215
...caused the following crash:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

In padata_alloc_pd, pd->cpu is set using the user-supplied cpumask
instead of the effective cpumask, and in this case cpumask_first picked
an offline CPU.
The offline CPU's reorder->list.next is NULL in padata_reorder because
the list wasn't initialized in padata_init_pqueues, which only operates
on CPUs in the effective mask.
Fix by using the effective mask in padata_alloc_pd.

padata_reorder")
