This patch adds the support for testing specific implementations.
This should only be used in very specific situations. Right now
this means specific implementations of random number generators.

crypto: skcipher - Change default sync geniv on SMP to eseqiv
As it stands we use chainiv for sync algorithms and eseqiv for
async algorithms. However, when there is more than one CPU
chainiv forces all processing to be serialised which is usually
not what you want. Also, the added overhead of eseqiv isn't that
great.
Therefore this patch changes the default sync geniv on SMP machines
to eseqiv. For the odd situation where the overhead is unacceptable
then chainiv is still available as an option.
Note that on UP machines chainiv is still preferred over eseqiv
for sync algorithms.

crypto: skcipher - Fix request for sync algorithms
When a sync givcipher algorithm is requested, if an async version
of the same algorithm already exists, then we will loop forever
without ever constructing the sync version based on a blkcipher.
This is because we did not include the requested type/mask when
getting a larval for the geniv algorithm that is to be constructed.

crypto: aes-ni - Don't print message with KERN_ERR on old system
When the aes-intel module is loaded on a system that does not have the
AES instructions, it prints
Intel AES-NI instructions are not detected.
at level KERN_ERR. Since aes-intel is aliased to "aes" it will be tried
whenever anything uses AES and spam the console. This doesn't match
existing practice for how to handle "no hardware" when initializing a
module, so downgrade the message to KERN_INFO.

crypto: tcrypt - Test algorithms by name
This adds the 'alg' module parameter to be able to test an
algorithm by name. If the algorithm type is not ad-hoc
clear for a algorithm (e.g. pcrypt, cryptd) it is possilbe
to set the algorithm type with the 'type' module parameter.
