[PATCH] KEYS: encrypted: fix key instantiation with user-provided data

Commit cd3bc044af48 ("KEYS: encrypted: Instantiate key with user-provided
decrypted data") added key instantiation with user provided decrypted data.
The user data is hex-ascii-encoded but was just memcpy'ed to the binary buffer.
Fix this to use hex2bin instead.
