Subject: [PATCH 06/12] digest: sha: remove no-op "erase" of automatic variables
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2020 09:19:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200930072005.1407-6-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200930072005.1407-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>

Some automatic variables are currently cleared as they may contain
"sensitive info". Any proper compiler would optimize away these
dead stores anyway, so just drop them.
