crypto_free_aead() can internally invoke vunmap() (e.g. via dma_free_attrs() in hardware crypto drivers such as hisi_sec2). vunmap() must not be called from softirq context, but free_rxsa() is an RCU callback that runs in softirq, leading to a kernel crash: vunmap+0x4c/0x70 __iommu_dma_free+0xd0/0x138 dma_free_attrs+0xf4/0x100 sec_aead_exit+0x64/0xb8 [hisi_sec2] crypto_destroy_tfm+0x98/0x110 free_rxsa+0x28/0x50 [macsec] rcu_do_batch+0x184/0x460 rcu_core+0xf4/0x1f8 handle_softirqs+0x118/0x330 Use rcu_work to defer the cleanup to a workqueue. rcu_work dispatches the worker asynchronously after the RCU grace period, so no thread blocks waiting, and concurrent releases of multiple SAs naturally share the same grace period.
