From 1aaa753d918c48c603195a468766e6a2b32b87f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2016 23:21:10 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: skcipher - Add helper to zero stack request As the size of an skcipher_request is variable, it's awkward to zero it explicitly. This patch adds a helper to do that which should be used when it is created on the stack.
