crypto: skcipher - Add skcipher_ialg_simple helper
This patch introduces the skcipher_ialg_simple helper which fetches the crypto_alg structure from a simple skcipher instance's spawn. This allows us to remove the third argument from the function skcipher_alloc_instance_simple. In doing so the reference count to the algorithm is now maintained by the Crypto API and the caller no longer needs to drop the alg refcount. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
