crypto: algapi - use common mechanism for inheriting flags
The flag CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC is "inherited" in the sense that when a
template is instantiated, the template will have CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC set if
any of the algorithms it uses has CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC set.
We'd like to add a second flag (CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY) that gets
"inherited" in the same way. This is difficult because the handling of
CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC is hardcoded everywhere. Address this by:
- Add CRYPTO_ALG_INHERITED_FLAGS, which contains the set of flags that
have these inheritance semantics.
- Add crypto_algt_inherited_mask(), for use by template ->create()
methods. It returns any of these flags that the user asked to be
unset and thus must be passed in the 'mask' to crypto_grab_*().
- Also modify crypto_check_attr_type() to handle computing the 'mask'
so that most templates can just use this.
- Make crypto_grab_*() propagate these flags to the template instance
being created so that templates don't have to do this themselves.
Make crypto/simd.c propagate these flags too, since it "wraps" another
algorithm, similar to a template.
