Subject: [PATCH 4.10 37/93] dm crypt: rewrite (wipe) key in crypto layer using random data

4.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Ondrej Kozina <okozina@...hat.com>

commit c82feeec9a014b72c4ffea36648cfb6f81cc1b73 upstream.

The message "key wipe" used to wipe real key stored in crypto layer by
rewriting it with zeroes.  Since commit 28856a9 ("crypto: xts -
consolidate sanity check for keys") this no longer works in FIPS mode
for XTS.

While running in FIPS mode the crypto key part has to differ from the
tweak key.

Fixes: 28856a9 ("crypto: xts - consolidate sanity check for keys")
