Subject: [PATCH 2/2] dh key: get rid of stack array allocation
Date:   Mon, 12 Mar 2018 22:29:07 -0600
Message-Id: <20180313042907.29598-2-tycho@tycho.ws>
In-Reply-To: <20180313042907.29598-1-tycho@tycho.ws>
References: <20180313042907.29598-1-tycho@tycho.ws>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Similarly to the previous patch, we would like to get rid of stack
allocated arrays: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/7/621

In this case, we can also use a malloc style approach to free the temporary
buffer, being careful to also use kzfree to free them (indeed, at least one
of these has a memzero_explicit, but it seems like maybe they both
should?).
