From 458c0480dcb338d7b72e89b2e88a622965adcea4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arvind Sankar Date: Sun, 25 Oct 2020 10:31:15 -0400 Subject: crypto: hash - Use memzero_explicit() for clearing state Without the barrier_data() inside memzero_explicit(), the compiler may optimize away the state-clearing if it can tell that the state is not used afterwards.
