Sleeping in setkey is no longer allowed.  I don't think it's
fatal yet because the main user driving this currently uses
sync ahashes only.  But we should avoid this in all new driver
code.

Easiest fix would be to allocate a sync ahash:

	ahash_tfm = crypto_alloc_ahash(alg_name, 0, CRYPTO_ALG_SYNC);
