The include/linux/crypto.h struct crypto_alg field cra_driver_name description
states "Unique name of the transformation provider. " ... " this contains the
name of the chip or provider and the name of the transformation algorithm."
In case of the stm32-crc driver, field cra_driver_name is identical for all
registered transformation providers and set to the name of the driver itself,
which is incorrect. This patch fixes it by assigning a unique cra_driver_name
to each registered transformation provider.
The kernel crash is triggered when the driver calls crypto_register_shashes()
which calls crypto_register_shash(), which calls crypto_register_alg(), which
calls __crypto_register_alg(), which returns -EEXIST, which is propagated
back through this call chain. Upon -EEXIST from crypto_register_shash(), the
crypto_register_shashes() starts unregistering the providers back, and calls
crypto_unregister_shash(), which calls crypto_unregister_alg(), and this is
where the BUG() triggers due to incorrect cra_refcnt.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
