Hi Herbert,
we should be able to autoload modules via their cra_driver_name, not
only by the module name. I added a few MODULE_ALIAS()es, for now only
for aes.ko which sets its driver-name and for SHA1/256 modules that I
need as fallbacks for padlock-sha.
Should I resend this patch with all soft-crypto algos having the
-generic module alias?
Michal
Crypto modules should be loadable by their .cra_driver_name, so
we should make MODULE_ALIAS()es with these names.
