commit 2bbb3375d967155bccc86a5887d4a6e29c56b683 upstream.
When CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER_EXTRA_TESTS=y, the first lookup of an
algorithm that needs to be instantiated using a template will always get
the generic implementation, even when an accelerated one is available.
This happens because the extra self-tests for the accelerated
implementation allocate the generic implementation for comparison
purposes, and then crypto_alg_tested() for the generic implementation
"fulfills" the original request (i.e. sets crypto_larval::adult).
This patch fixes this by only fulfilling the original request if
we are currently the best outstanding larval as judged by the
priority. If we're not the best then we will ask all waiters on
that larval request to retry the lookup.
Note that this patch introduces a behaviour change when the module
providing the new algorithm is unregistered during the process.
Previously we would have failed with ENOENT, after the patch we
will instead redo the lookup.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
