Thank you for your persistence. It is appreciated :-)

If I understood correctly what you are referring to than the buffer is not
allocated in this code path (unless I've missed something):

The buffer is allocated in ssi_ablkcipher_decrypt() which sets
req_ctx->gen_ctx.op_type
to DRV_CRYPTO_DIRECTION_DECRYPT.

The buffer is not allocated in the parallel function
(ssi_ablkcipher_encrypt) which matches
the else clause of this if statement.
