We recently disabled ahash drivers that do not declare statesize
because it can lead to a crash when the driver is used through
algif.

Not declaring statesize is a bug anyway but the fact that it
is exported through algif makes it much worse.

I don't see the point for a fixes tag as it would simply refer
to the original patch-set that added the driver.
