Maybe my patch is the best we can do in the current kernel, if

Let's see what people use before we do anything more fancy.
If the variants really start proliferating, we can add a template
called "trunc" and then have things like "trunc(sha3,224)", etc.
If they start proliferating, you really just want a single "sha3(n)",
one single shash_alg registered at driver init time.
