crypto: ccp - Protect against poorly marked end of sg list

Scatter gather lists can be created with more available entries than are
actually used (e.g. using sg_init_table() to reserve a specific number
of sg entries, but in actuality using something less than that based on
the data length).  The caller sometimes fails to mark the last entry
with sg_mark_end().  In these cases, sg_nents() will return the original
size of the sg list as opposed to the actual number of sg entries that
contain valid data.

On arm64, if the sg_nents() value is used in a call to dma_map_sg() in
this situation, then it causes a BUG_ON in lib/swiotlb.c because an
"empty" sg list entry results in dma_capable() returning false and
swiotlb trying to create a bounce buffer of size 0. This occurred in
the userspace crypto interface before being fixed by

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

Protect against this by using the new sg_nents_for_len() function which
returns only the number of sg entries required to meet the desired
length and supplying that value to dma_map_sg().
