    Commit 5d26a105b5a7 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"")
    changed the automatic module loading when requesting crypto algorithms
    to prefix all module requests with "crypto-". This requires all crypto
    modules to have a crypto specific module alias even if their file name
    would otherwise match the requested crypto algorithm.

    Even though commit 5d26a105b5a7 added those aliases for a vast amount of
    modules, it was missing a few. Add the required MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO
    annotations to those files to make them get loaded automatically, again.
    This fixes, e.g., requesting 'ecb(blowfish-generic)', which used to work
    with kernels v3.18 and below.

    Also change MODULE_ALIAS() lines to MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO(). The former
    won't work for crypto modules any more.

  • commit 5d26a105b5a73e5635eae0629b42fa0a90e07b7b upstream.

    This prefixes all crypto module loading with "crypto-" so we never run
    the risk of exposing module auto-loading to userspace via a crypto API,
    as demonstrated by Mathias Krause:
