Subject: [PATCH][next] crypto: amlogic: ensure error variable err is set before returning it

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

Currently when the call to crypto_engine_alloc_init fails the error
return path returns an uninitialized value in the variable err. Fix
this by setting err to -ENOMEM.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: 48fe583fe541 ("crypto: amlogic - Add crypto accelerator for amlogic GXL")
