Good point. I had a quick look at tls_sw.c and it *appears* to be safe with the default software code. As tls_sw only uses the generic AEAD algorithms (rather than the IPsec-specific variants which aren't safe), the software-only paths *should* be OK. However, drivers that support these algorithms may require fallbacks for esoteric reasons. For example, drivers/crypto/amcc appears to require a fallback for certain input parameters which may or may not be possible with TLS. To be on the safe side I would do a backport once this has been in mainline for a little bit.
