crypto: qat - set to zero DH parameters before free

[ Upstream commit 1731160ff7c7bbb11bb1aacb14dd25e18d522779 ]

Set to zero the context buffers containing the DH key before they are
freed.
This is a defense in depth measure that avoids keys to be recovered from
memory in case the system is compromised between the free of the buffer
and when that area of memory (containing keys) gets overwritten.
