crypto: scatterwalk - Fix memcpy_sglist() to always succeed
The original implementation of memcpy_sglist() was broken because it
didn't handle scatterlists that describe exactly the same memory, which
is a case that many callers rely on. The current implementation is
broken too because it calls the skcipher_walk functions which can fail.
It ignores any errors from those functions.
Fix it by replacing it with a new implementation written from scratch.
It always succeeds. It's also a bit faster, since it avoids the
overhead of skcipher_walk. skcipher_walk includes a lot of
functionality (such as alignmask handling) that's irrelevant here.
