crypto: Use local accumulator t[] in mul_amm_256 to avoid aliasing#1477
Conversation
Use a local array t[4] instead of writing directly to the output span r, which may alias the inputs x or y. This allows the compiler to keep the accumulator in registers without reloading after stores. The result is copied to r at the end. ~6% speedup on 256-bit modexp benchmarks (25846 → 24256 cycles).
