crypto: api - Add support for duplicating algorithms before registration
If the bit CRYPTO_ALG_DUP_FIRST is set, an algorithm will be duplicated by kmemdup before registration. This is inteded for hardware-based algorithms that may be unplugged at will. Do not use this if the algorithm data structure is embedded in a bigger data structure. Perform the duplication in the driver instead. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
