Eric Biggers 629f1afc15 crypto: algapi - remove obsoleted instance creation helpers
Remove lots of helper functions that were previously used for
instantiating crypto templates, but are now unused:

- crypto_get_attr_alg() and similar functions looked up an inner
  algorithm directly from a template parameter.  These were replaced
  with getting the algorithm's name, then calling crypto_grab_*().

- crypto_init_spawn2() and similar functions initialized a spawn, given
  an algorithm.  Similarly, these were replaced with crypto_grab_*().

- crypto_alloc_instance() and similar functions allocated an instance
  with a single spawn, given the inner algorithm.  These aren't useful
  anymore since crypto_grab_*() need the instance allocated first.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
