crypto: mv_cesa - ensure backlog is initialised
backlog is not initialised so in the case where cpg->eng_st != ENGINE_IDLE it is never initialised and hence which could lead to an illegal memory dereference in the statement: backlog->complete(backlog, -EINPROGRESS); Discovered with cppcheck static analsys: [drivers/crypto/mv_cesa.c:616]: (error) Uninitialized variable: backlog Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
