[PATCH v4 09/10] crypto: safexcel - Rework cleanup of sensitive structs in safexcel_aead_setkey

Thomas Huth <[email protected]>

Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: Thomas Huth <[email protected]>

The crypto_authenc_keys structure only contains pointers to keys, but not
the key data itself. So explicitly clearing the structure at the end of
safexcel_aead_setkey() is not really necessary, see Eric's recommendation
here:

 https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/[email protected]/

On the other hand, the crypto_aes_ctx might contain sensitive information,
so this structure should be cleaned up at the end instead. Do this
now via the new __cleanup(aes_zeroize_ctx) marker.

Since __cleanup() and gotos should not be mixed in the same function,
replace the gotos with early return statements, which is fine now that
we dropped the memzero_explicit(&keys, sizeof(keys)) at the end.
