crypto: starfive - Correctly handle return of sg_nents_for_len
The return value of sg_nents_for_len was assigned to an unsigned long
in starfive_hash_digest, causing negative error codes to be converted
to large positive integers.
Add error checking for sg_nents_for_len and return immediately on
failure to prevent potential buffer overflows.
