crypto_*_spawn should not be the place where you make the call on
whether internals are allowed.  You should put that information
into places such as ablk_init_common or wherever these internals
are allocated.

So in ablk_init_common you would do

        cryptd_tfm = cryptd_alloc_ablkcipher(drv_name, CRYPTO_ALG_INTERNAL,
                                             CRYPTO_ALG_INTERNAL);

IOW internals are disallowed if you don't specify it in the mask,
but you can get them if you do specify it in the mask (and the
corresponding bit in the type).

Cheers,
