Hmm, interesting.  It shouldn't actually matter, since this doesn't call
any other function, but we might as well leave it at 96 then.  I don't
think this was considered when any of the RISC-V crypto code was
written, but fortunately this is the only one that uses the stack.

Anyway, I guess I'll apply this as-is then.
