crypto: lib/sha256 - Don't clear temporary variables
The assignments to clear a through h and t1/t2 are optimized out by the compiler because they are unused after the assignments. Clearing individual scalar variables is unlikely to be useful, as they may have been assigned to registers, and even if stack spilling was required, there may be compiler-generated temporaries that are impossible to clear in any case. So drop the clearing of a through h and t1/t2.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
