sunrpc: remove incorrect HMAC request initialization
make_checksum_hmac_md5() is allocating an HMAC transform and doing crypto API calls in the following order: crypto_ahash_init() crypto_ahash_setkey() crypto_ahash_digest() This is wrong because it makes no sense to init() the request before a key has been set, given that the initial state depends on the key. And digest() is short for init() + update() + final(), so in this case there's no need to explicitly call init() at all. Before commit 9fa68f620041 ("crypto: hash - prevent using keyed hashes without setting key") the extra init() had no real effect, at least for the software HMAC implementation. (There are also hardware drivers that implement HMAC-MD5, and it's not immediately obvious how gracefully they handle init() before setkey().) But now the crypto API detects this incorrect initialization and returns -ENOKEY. This is breaking NFS mounts in some cases. Fix it by removing the incorrect call to crypto_ahash_init().
