[PATCH] crypto: digest: Fix digesting over memory chunks > 4096 bytes

There are two different cases that are handled in digest_file_window:
a) the file to digest is memmappable (e.g. /dev/mem)
b) it isn't (e.g. files in /)
In both cases a file is digested in hunks of (up to) 4096 bytes. After
each hunk in b) the buffer that is fed to digest_update() is then
overwritten using read() to get the next hunk to digest. In case a)
however it was forgotten to step forward in the buffer and instead the
same data was handed to digest_update() again and again.
So to fix that increase buffer by the number of bytes already digested
for case a) which is characterized by flags == 0.

Hello,
this is the obvious and minimal patch to fix this issue. Maybe it is
worth to simplify the function by splitting it in two where each one
handles one of the cases above.
Best regards
Uwe
