examples/fips_validation: fix null pointer dereferences
Checks
Commit Message
One issue caught by Coverity 343408
*deref_parm: Directly dereferencing parameter val->val.
In writeback_tdes_hex_str(), tmp_val is initialised to null.
tmp_val.val is updated only if keys are found.
If keys are not found,it doesn't fails but continues
to invoke writeback_hex_str(),where val->val is accessed
without null check.
The fix is to return the error,
if keys are not found in writeback_tdes_hex_str().
