A few things:

The crypto _ON_STACK declarations cannot have a $Storage type.

There should be a \s* between the ON_STACK and the open parenthesis

There are other _ON_STACK types than the crypto uses

$ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] -oh "\b[A-Z_]+_ON_STACK\b" * | \
  sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
     68 SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK
     45 SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK
     10 AHASH_REQUEST_ON_STACK
      4 PC_LOC_ON_STACK
      4 DECLARE_DPM_WATCHDOG_ON_STACK
      3 HISI_SAS_DECLARE_RST_WORK_ON_STACK
      3 CONFIG_ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ON_STACK
      1 PT_SIZE_ON_STACK
      1 ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK

So perhaps:

	(?:SKCIPHER_REQUEST|SHASH_DESC|AHASH_REQUEST)_ON_STACK\s*\(
