SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/3 v2] crypto: introduce the flag CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY

This comment is useless. How about:

/*
* When an algorithm uses another algorithm (e.g., if it's an instance of a
* template), these are the flags that always get set on the "outer" algorithm
* if any "inner" algorithm has them set. In some cases other flags are
* inherited too; these are just the flags that are *always* inherited.
*/
#define CRYPTO_ALG_INHERITED_FLAGS (CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC | CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY)

Also I wonder about the case where the inner algorithm is a fallback rather than
part of a template instance. This patch only handles templates, not fallbacks.
Is that intentional? Isn't that technically a bug?

As I suggested earlier, shouldn't there be a function that returns the mask for
all inherited flags, rather than handling each flag individually?

Strange indentation here. Likewise in most of the other files.

Need to set the mask correctly in this file.

Need to use CRYPTO_ALG_INHERITED_FLAGS in this file.
