Subject: crypto: mcryptd - pass through absence of ->setkey()

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit fa59b92d299f2787e6bae1ff078ee0982e80211f upstream.

When the mcryptd template is used to wrap an unkeyed hash algorithm,
don't install a ->setkey() method to the mcryptd instance.  This change
is necessary for mcryptd to keep working with unkeyed hash algorithms
once we start enforcing that ->setkey() is called when present.
