From: Eric Biggers <[email protected]> fscrypt is clearing the flags on the crypto_skcipher it allocates for each inode. But, this is unnecessary and may cause problems in the future because it will even clear flags that are meant to be internal to the crypto API, e.g. CRYPTO_TFM_NEED_KEY.
Remove the unnecessary flag clearing.
