I finally managed to reproduce this, but only by using the exact same
compiler as Geert:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/4.9.0/x86_64-gcc-4.9.0-nolibc_aarch64-linux.tar.xz
I then reliably see the problem if I run:
# /usr/bin/update-ca-certificates
from Debian Jessie.
Note that my normal toolchain (Linaro 7.1.1 build) works fine and also
if I use the toolchain above but disable CONFIG_ARM64_CRYPTO then things
work too.
So there's some toolchain-specific interaction between this change and the
crypto code...
