[PATCH 06/28] crypto: omap-sham: avoid executing tasklet where not needed

Some of the call paths of OMAP SHA driver can avoid executing the next
step of the crypto queue under tasklet; instead, execute the next step
directly via function call. This avoids a costly round-trip via the
scheduler giving a slight performance boost.
