Calling crypto_alloc_shash is not allowed in this context.  For
example, we might have been called down from the block layer due to
swapping.  Even if you intermediate this with kernel threads, it
still doesn't change the nature of the dead-lock.

So if you need a fallback for zero-length messages, just allocate
it unconditionally in the init_tfm function.

Cheers,
