After reviewing patch 2 in this series it's clear that these function
pointers are NULL if a driver does not implement the sec_ops functions.
So unless the implementation there is changed, each of these calls needs
to be wrapped in a test to see if the corresponding pointer is valid and
to return -EOPNOTSUPP if it is NULL.
