[PATCH 1/2] crypto: stm32 - Fix uninitialized data usage

The error handling in stm32_hash_irq_thread passes
uninitialized data into stm32_hash_finish_req, as gcc
points out:

drivers/crypto/stm32/stm32-hash.c: In function 'stm32_hash_irq_thread':
drivers/crypto/stm32/stm32-hash.c:1088:2: error: 'err' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

I could not tell what data should be passed there instead,
so this changes the code to always pass zero, making it
well-defined, though possibly still wrong. Please check.
