This patch fixes a crash which occured during the computation of the digest of an empty message. Indeed, when processing an empty message, the atmel_sha_handle_queue() function was never called, hence the dd->req pointer remained uninitialized. Later, when the atmel_sha_final_req() function was called, it used to crash while using this uninitialized dd->req pointer. Hence this patch adds missing initializations of dd->req before calls of the atmel_sha_final_req() function. This bug prevented us from passing the tcrypt test suite on SHA algo.
