4.2.8-ckt3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Herbert Xu <herbert at gondor.apana.org.au>

commit 202736d99b7f29279db9da61587f11a08a04a9c6 upstream.

We mark the end of the SG list in sendmsg and sendpage and unmark
it on the next send call.  Unfortunately the unmarking in sendmsg
is off-by-one, leading to an SG list that is too short.

Fixes: 0f477b655a52 ("crypto: algif - Mark sgl end at the end of data")
