crypto: acomp - fix wrong pointer stored by acomp_save_req()
acomp_save_req() stores &req->chain in req->base.data. When
acomp_reqchain_done() is invoked on asynchronous completion, it receives
&req->chain as the data argument but casts it directly to struct
acomp_req. Since data points to the chain member, all subsequent field
accesses are at a wrong offset, resulting in memory corruption.
The issue occurs when an asynchronous hardware implementation, such as
the QAT driver, completes a request that uses the DMA virtual address
interface (e.g. acomp_request_set_src_dma()). This combination causes
crypto_acomp_compress() to enter the acomp_do_req_chain() path, which
sets acomp_reqchain_done() as the completion callback via
acomp_save_req().
With KASAN enabled, this manifests as a general protection fault in
acomp_reqchain_done():
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xe000040000000000
KASAN: probably user-memory-access in range [0x0000400000000000-0x0000400000000007]
RIP: 0010:acomp_reqchain_done+0x15b/0x4e0

</IRQ>
Fix this by storing the request itself in req->base.data instead of
&req->chain, so that acomp_reqchain_done() receives the correct pointer.
Simplify acomp_restore_req() accordingly to access req->chain directly.
