4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 5d0be84ec0cacfc7a6d6ea548afdd07d481324cd upstream. If crypt_alloc_tfms() had to allocate multiple tfms and it failed before the last allocation, then it would call crypt_free_tfms() and could free pointers from uninitialized memory -- due to the crypt_free_tfms() check for non-zero cc->tfms[i]. Fix by allocating zeroed memory.
