crypto: gf128mul - fix call to memset()
In gf128mul_lle() and gf128mul_bbe() r isn't completely initialized with zero because the size argument passed to memset() is the size of the pointer, not the structure it points to. Luckily there are no in-kernel users of those functions so the ABI change implied by this fix should break no existing code. Based on a patch by the PaX Team.
