Stephan Müller 43490e8046 crypto: drbg - in-place cipher operation for CTR
The cipher implementations of the kernel crypto API favor in-place
cipher operations. Thus, switch the CTR cipher operation in the DRBG to
perform in-place operations. This is implemented by using the output
buffer as input buffer and zeroizing it before the cipher operation to
implement a CTR encryption of a NULL buffer.

The speed improvement is quite visibile with the following comparison
using the LRNG implementation.
