[PATCH 04/11] lib/crypto: aes: Provide functions for zeroizing aes_key and aes_enckey

[Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>]

From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>

Some crypto functions need to zeroize their local aes_key or aes_enckey
structures after use to avoid leaking sensitive material on the stack.
Provide aes_zeroize_key() and aes_zeroize_enckey() helper functions that
can be used with __cleanup() to automatically zeroize the structs when
they go out of scope.
