Is it mandatory for both async hash and shash ?

in crypto/ahash.c in function

static int crypto_ahash_init_tfm(struct crypto_tfm *tfm)

there is:

	hash->export = ahash_no_export;
	hash->import = ahash_no_import;

and later in the same function:

	if (alg->export)
		hash->export = alg->export;
	if (alg->import)
		hash->import = alg->import;
