[PATCH 4.14 130/156] staging: ccree: NULLify backup_info when unused

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 46df8824982e4fb0198776078d4a8c3e2d531464 upstream.

backup_info field is only allocated for decrypt code path.
The field was not nullified when not used causing a kfree
in an error handling path to attempt to free random
addresses as uncovered in stress testing.

Fixes: 737aed947f9b ("staging: ccree: save ciphertext for CTS IV")
