    crypto: api - Use work queue in crypto_destroy_instance
    
    [ Upstream commit 9ae4577bc077a7e32c3c7d442c95bc76865c0f17 ]
    
    The function crypto_drop_spawn expects to be called in process
    context.  However, when an instance is unregistered while it still
    has active users, the last user may cause the instance to be freed
    in atomic context.
    
    Fix this by delaying the freeing to a work queue.
