Subject: [PATCH 3.16 047/217] crypto: ccp - memset request context to zero
 during import

3.16.35-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@....com>

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().
