Subject: [PATCH] Trusted and Encrypted Keys: fix up TSS_rawhmac() so we always
 kfree() and remember to call va_end()

In security/keys/trusted_defined.c::TSS_rawhmac() we may leak the storage 
allocated to 'sdesc' if
  data = va_arg(argp, unsigned char *);
results in a NULL 'data' and we then leave the function by returning 
-EINVAL. We also neglect calling va_end(argp) in that case and furthermore 
we neglect va_end(argp) if
  ret = crypto_shash_update(&sdesc->shash, data, dlen);
results in ret being negative and we then jump to the 'out' label.

I believe this patch takes care of these issues. Please review and 
consider for inclusion.
