Subject: [PATCH] crypto: x86/aesni: Align the address before aes_set_key_common()

aes_set_key_common() performs runtime alignment to the void *raw_ctx
pointer. This facilitates consistent access to the 16byte-aligned
address during key extension.

However, the alignment is already handlded in the GCM-related setkey
functions before invoking the common function. Consequently, the
alignment in the common function is unnecessary for those functions.

To establish a consistent approach throughout the glue code, remove
the aes_ctx() call from its current location. Instead, place it at
each call site where the runtime alignment is currently absent.

The need for this fix was discovered during Eric's review of the Key
Locker series [1]. Considering the upstream code also requires this
improvement, this is applicable regardless of the Key Locker enabling
[2].
