crypto: ecdh - Initialize ctx->private_key in proper byte order
The private key in ctx->private_key is currently initialized in reverse byte order in ecdh_set_secret and whenever the key is needed in proper byte order the variable priv is introduced and the bytes from ctx->private_key are copied into priv while being byte-swapped (ecc_swap_digits). To get rid of the unnecessary byte swapping initialize ctx->private_key in proper byte order and clean up all functions that were previously using priv or were called with ctx->private_key: - ecc_gen_privkey: Directly initialize the passed ctx->private_key with random bytes filling all the digits of the private key. Get rid of the priv variable. This function only has ecdh_set_secret as a caller to create NIST P192/256/384 private keys. - crypto_ecdh_shared_secret: Called only from ecdh_compute_value with ctx->private_key. Get rid of the priv variable and work with the passed private_key directly. - ecc_make_pub_key: Called only from ecdh_compute_value with ctx->private_key. Get rid of the priv variable and work with the passed private_key directly.
