When testing sun8i-ss with multi_v7_defconfig, all CBC algorithm fail crypto
selftests.
This is strange since on sunxi_defconfig, everything was ok.
The problem was in the IV setup loop which never run because sg_dma_len
was 0.

Fixes: 359e893e8af4 ("crypto: sun8i-ss - rework handling of IV")

If someone know why sunxi_defconfig have sg_dma_len() which always works
even with any DMA call not done.

It seems that sunxi_defconfig has CONFIG_NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH disabled, so
sg_dma_len() defaults to sg->length.

In general, only use sg_dma_len if you are mapping an entire
SG list with dma_map_sg.

If you're using dma_map_single, do not use sg_dma_len.

This is because dma_map_sg will try to merge entries together,
thus creating an sg_dma_len that is bigger than the original
(and reducing the SG list length accordingly).

OTOH dma_map_single can't possibly do that.

Cheers,
