sed-opal: allow using IOC_OPAL_SAVE for locking too
Usually when closing a crypto device (eg: dm-crypt with LUKS) the
volume key is not required, as it requires root privileges anyway, and
root can deny access to a disk in many ways regardless. Requiring the
volume key to lock the device is a peculiarity of the OPAL
specification.
Given we might already have saved the key if the user requested it via
the 'IOC_OPAL_SAVE' ioctl, we can use that key to lock the device if no
key was provided here and the locking range matches, and the user sets
the appropriate flag with 'IOC_OPAL_SAVE'. This allows integrating OPAL
with tools and libraries that are used to the common behaviour and do
not ask for the volume key when closing a device.
Callers can always pass a non-zero key and it will be used regardless,
as before.
