Found a bug here; 'xctr_name' in the strscpy() statement needs to be
xctr_alg->base.cra_name. Otherwise something like
'hctr2_base(xctr-aes-aesni,polyval-clmulni)' doesn't work, as it will try to
extract the block cipher name from the driver name "xctr-aes-aesni" instead of
from the algorithm name "xctr(aes)" as intended.
