Merge branch 'macsec-clear-encryption-keys-in-h-w-drivers'

Antoine Tenart says:

====================
macsec: clear encryption keys in h/w drivers

Commit aaab73f8fba4 ("macsec: clear encryption keys from the stack after
setting up offload") made sure to clean encryption keys from the stack
after setting up offloading but some h/w drivers did a copy of the key
which need to be zeroed as well.

The MSCC PHY driver can actually be converted not to copy the encryption
key at all, but such patch would be quite difficult to backport. I'll
send a following up patch doing this in net-next once this series lands.

Tested on the MSCC PHY but not on the atlantic NIC.
