Well having a shash descriptor on the stack is always pushing
the envelope.  Doing it when you put another 256-byte string is
obviously not a good idea.  The good thing is that the string
isn't necessary, so how about:

---8<---
The function ima_calc_field_array_hash_tfm uses a stack descriptor
for shash.  As hashing requires a large amount of space this means
that you shouldn't put any other large data on the stack at the same
time, for example, you definitely shouldn't put a 256-byte string
which you're going to hash on the stack.

Luckily this string is mostly composed of zeroes so we could just
use ZERO_PAGE instead.
