crypto: user - Fix crypto_alg_match race
The function crypto_alg_match returns an algorithm without taking any references on it. This means that the algorithm can be freed at any time, therefore all users of crypto_alg_match are buggy. This patch fixes this by taking a reference count on the algorithm to prevent such races. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
