Subject: crypto: ccp - memset request context to zero during import

From: Tom Lendacky <[email protected]>

commit ce0ae266feaf35930394bd770c69778e4ef03ba9 upstream.

Since a crypto_ahash_import() can be called against a request context that has not had a crypto_ahash_init() performed, the request context needs to be cleared to insure there is no random data present. If not, the random data can result in a kernel oops during crypto_ahash_update().
