Apologies, but doesn't that do the opposite of what we want?
Documentation/crypto/architecture.rst says:
The mask flag restricts the type of cipher. The only allowed flag is
CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC to restrict the cipher lookup function to
asynchronous ciphers. Usually, a caller provides a 0 for the mask
flag.
Don't we want only synchronous ciphers?
