Linux kernel source tree

When af_alg_sendmsg() calls extract_iter_to_sg(), it passes MAX_SGL_ENTS as
the maximum number of elements that may be written to, but some of the
elements may already have been used (as recorded in sgl->cur), so
extract_iter_to_sg() may end up overrunning the scatterlist.
Fix this to limit the number of elements to "MAX_SGL_ENTS - sgl->cur".
Note: It probably makes sense in future to alter the behaviour of
extract_iter_to_sg() to stop if "sgtable->nents >= sg_max" instead, but
this is a smaller fix for now.
The bug causes errors looking something like:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
