I'm really confused about both the existing code and this fixup.
Why isn't chap->sc_c directly passed to crypto_shash_update here?
Why do we need to memset buf when only a single byte is passed to
crypto_shash_update?

Just pass it directly here?

just have a
sttic const u8 zero = 0;
and use that here instead of the memset?
