From 38cb2419f544ad413c7f7aa8c17fd7377610cdd8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2007 22:09:38 +0800 Subject: [CRYPTO] api: Fix potential race in crypto_remove_spawn As it is crypto_remove_spawn may try to unregister an instance which is yet to be registered. This patch fixes this by checking whether the instance has been registered before attempting to remove it. It also removes a bogus cra_destroy check in crypto_register_instance as 1) it's outside the mutex; 2) we have a check in __crypto_register_alg already.
