The vfio-ap crypto driver fails to allocate memory for an array of
pointers used to pass supported mdev types to mdev_register_parent().

Since we only support a single mdev type, the fix is to allocate a
single entry in the ap_matrix_dev->mdev_types array.

Thanks, will go via s390-fixes.

Alex, FYI.
