This reverts commit ccf11dbaa07b328fa469415c362d33459c140a37.

Commit ccf11dbaa07b ("evm: Fix memleak in init_desc") said there is
memleak in init_desc. That may be incorrect, as we can see, tmp_tfm is
saved in one of the two global variables hmac_tfm ohr evm_tfm[hash_algo],
then if init_desc is called next time, there is no need to alloc tfm
again, so in the error path of kmalloc desc or crypto_shash_init(desc),
It is not a problem without freeing tmp_tfm.

And also that commit did not reset the global variable to NULL after
freeing tmp_tfm and this makes *tfm a dangling pointer which may cause a
UAF issue.

Agreed, thanks.  This was first reported by Guozihua (Scott) <

Reported-by tag.

Good for me,  thanks.
