crypto: aesni - prevent misaligned buffers on the stack
commit a13ed1d upstream. The GCM mode driver uses 16 byte aligned buffers on the stack to pass the IV to the asm helpers, but unfortunately, the x86 port does not guarantee that the stack pointer is 16 byte aligned upon entry in the first place. Since the compiler is not aware of this, it will not emit the additional stack realignment sequence that is needed, and so the alignment is not guaranteed to be more than 8 bytes. So instead, allocate some padding on the stack, and realign the IV pointer by hand.
