Subject: [PATCH 1/7] crypto: Fixes uninitialized skcipher_walk use in sm4_aesni_avx_glue

In the following functions:
 - `sm4_avx_ctr_crypt`
 - `sm4_avx_cfb_decrypt`
 - `sm4_cfb_encrypt`
 - `sm4_cbc_encrypt`
 - `sm4_avx_cbc_decrypt`
 - `ecb_do_crypt`

`struct skcipher_walk *walk` is not fully initialized before its use.

Although the call to `skcipher_walk_virt()` and subsequent functions
that this function calls seem to initialize some fields of this struct,

there is a chance that `skcipher_walk_virt()` returns
without fully clearing or properly initializing the `->flags` field
which means that the following flags:
`SKCIPHER_WALK_DIFF`, `SKCIPHER_WALK_COPY`, `SKCIPHER_WALK_SLOW`
could be storing junk values by the time `skcipher_walk_done()` is called.

This could lead to buggy or undefined behaviour since these flags
are checked in `skcipher_walk_done()`:

```C
int skcipher_walk_done(struct skcipher_walk *walk, int err)
{
	...
    if (likely(!(walk->flags & (SKCIPHER_WALK_PHYS |
        SKCIPHER_WALK_SLOW |
        SKCIPHER_WALK_COPY |
        SKCIPHER_WALK_DIFF)))) {
    ...
}
```

To prevent this, this patch ensures that instances of `struct skcipher_walk`
are correctly initialized prior to their use.

                        1491774 ("Unintialized scalar variable")
