[PATCH v2 2/2] crypto: x86/aesni - Update aesni_set_key() to return void

From: Chang S. Bae
Date: Fri Mar 22 2024 - 19:21:14 EST


The aesni_set_key() implementation has no error case, yet its prototype
specifies to return an error code.

Modify the function prototype to return void and adjust the related code.

V2 <- V1:
* Ensure not to return an uninitialized value. (Ard Biesheuvel)

Previously, Eric identified a similar case in my AES-KL code [1]. Then,
this parallel issue was realized.
