Bug description:
  Description:   zkey: Fix display of clear key size for XTS keys
  Symptom:       The 'zkey list' command shows bogus values for the
                 keys 'Clear key size' for XTS keys of type CCA-AESDATA
                 or CCA-AESCIPHER.
  Problem:       XTS keys consist of 2 keys concatenated to each other.
                 To calculate the clear key size, the clear key size of
                 both keys must be added. The code does not address the
                 second key correctly, and thus reads the clear key size
                 of the second key from an invalid memory location. This
                 results in bogus values reported as clear key size.
                 This bug has been introduced with feature "Cipher
                 key support" with commit 298fab68fee8 "zkey: Preparations 
                 for introducing a new key type".
  Solution:      Correct the addressing of the second key.
  Reproduction:  Generate an XTS key of type CCA-AESDATA or CCA-AESCIPHER
                 and then run 'zkey list'.
