Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/herbert/crypto-2.6
Pull crypto fixes from Herbert Xu: "This fixes a 7+ year race condition in the crypto API that causes sporadic crashes when multiple threads load the same algorithm. It also fixes the crct10dif algorithm again to prevent boot failures on systems where the initramfs tool ignores module softdeps" * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/herbert/crypto-2.6: crypto: crct10dif - Add fallback for broken initrds crypto: api - Fix race condition in larval lookup
