Commit 383203eff718 ("dh key: get rid of stack allocated array") changed
kdf_ctr() to assume that the length of key material to derive is a
multiple of the digest size. The length was supposed to be rounded up
accordingly. However, the round_up() macro was used which only gives
the correct result on power-of-2 arguments, whereas not all hash
algorithms have power-of-2 digest sizes. In some cases this resulted in
a write past the end of the 'outbuf' buffer.
Fix it by switching to roundup(), which works for non-power-of-2 inputs.
