From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>
crypto_stats_get() is a no-op when the kernel is compiled without
CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS, so pairing it with crypto_alg_put() unconditionally
(as crypto_rng_reset() does) is wrong.
Fix this by moving the call to crypto_stats_get() to just before the
actual algorithm operation which might need it. This makes it always
paired with crypto_stats_rng_seed().
Fixes: eed74b3eba9e ("crypto: rng - Fix a refcounting bug in crypto_rng_reset()")
