    [CRYPTO] ctr: Fix multi-page processing · 0971eb0d

    When the data spans across a page boundary, CTR may incorrectly process
    a partial block in the middle because the blkcipher walking code may
    supply partial blocks in the middle as long as the total length of the
    supplied data is more than a block.  CTR is supposed to return any unused
    partial block in that case to the walker.
    
    This patch fixes this by doing exactly that, returning partial blocks to
    the walker unless we received less than a block-worth of data to start
    with.
    
    This also allows us to optimise the bulk of the processing since we no
    longer have to worry about partial blocks until the very end.
    
    Thanks to Tan Swee Heng for fixes and actually testing this :)
