All the ChaCha20 algorithms as well as the ARM bit-sliced AES-XTS algorithms call skcipher_walk_virt(), then access the IV (walk.iv) before checking whether any bytes need to be processed (walk.nbytes). But if the input is empty, then skcipher_walk_virt() doesn't set the IV, and the algorithms crash trying to use the uninitialized IV pointer. Fix it by setting the IV earlier in skcipher_walk_virt(). Also fix it for the AEAD walk functions. This isn't a perfect solution because we can't actually align the IV to ->cra_alignmask unless there are bytes to process, for one because the temporary buffer for the aligned IV is freed by skcipher_walk_done(), which is only called when there are bytes to process. Thus, algorithms that require aligned IVs will still need to avoid accessing the IV when walk.nbytes == 0. Still, many algorithms/architectures are fine with IVs having any alignment, and even for those that aren't, a misaligned pointer bug is much less severe than an uninitialized pointer bug. This change also matches the behavior of the older blkcipher_walk API.
