I can concur that once in a while I see an ENOENT too for hashes. Let me try 
to investigate that.

BUG: af_alg bind fails for 50 % request from userspace for hash algo

[Harsh Jain]

Hi Herbert/Stephen,

When I try to run 100 application which calculates sha384 digest from 
userspace, nearly 50 applications fail in bind system call with error ENOENT.

"crypto_alg_mod_lookup" in api.c call fails in kernel space. Issue comes in 1st 
try only(Seems some relation with crypto test executions).  If I execute same 
test again issue didn't reproduce.
