From: Michal Nazarewicz <mina86@xxxxxxxxxx>
blkcipher_walk_init and ablkcipher_walk_init functions are called
to initialise a walk structure allocated on stack, which is not
initialised by the caller. This means, that the fields of the
structure contain garbage when *_init is run.
The *_init functions do not initialise all of the fields though,
and in particular leave flags field as is. This results in field
containing unspecified value.
Zeroing the whole structure makes sure that all of the fields
are initialised to the same value regardless of the values stored
on the stack prior to the call to the *_init function.
