Description

cipher: Fix possible NULL deref in call to prime generator.

* cipher/primegen.c (_gcry_generate_elg_prime): Change to return an
error code.
* cipher/dsa.c (generate): Take care of new return code.
* cipher/elgamal.c (generate): Change to return an error code.  Take
care of _gcry_generate_elg_prime return code.
(generate_using_x): Take care of _gcry_generate_elg_prime return code.
(elg_generate): Propagate return code from generate.

Note that the NULL deref may have only happened on malloc failure.
