Subject: [PATCH v6 17/18] crypto: ccm: Remove VLA usage

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@...aro.org>

In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
drops AHASH_REQUEST_ON_STACK by preallocated the ahash request area
with the skcipher area (which are not used at the same time).
