From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gre...@linuxfoundation.org> commit f93274ef0fe972c120c96b3207f8fce376231a60 upstream.
The function derive_pub_key() should be calling memzero_explicit() instead of memset() in case the complier decides to optimize away the call to memset() because it "knows" no one is going to touch the memory anymore.
