Subject: [PATCH] keys: asymmetric: fix error return code in
 software_key_query()

From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@...wei.com>

Fix to return negative error code -ENOMEM from kmalloc() error handling
case instead of 0, as done elsewhere in this function.

Fixes: f1774cb8956a ("X.509: parse public key parameters from x509 for akcipher")
