 The `rsa_ed_crosscert` variable is assigned a cross-certification object
 in the `load_ed_keys` function but is never freed. Secondly, the variable
 is only used by the `get_master_rsa_crosscert` function which, in turn, is
 not used by the current code base.

 My suggestion is to remove the `rsa_ed_crosscert` variable and the
 `get_master_rsa_crosscert` function to fix the memory leak (unless they
 have some future use-case).

 The variable and function were added in
 3bee74c6d115131f4850a07a5c12db21ae6f3193.
