I removed all checks. No checks in driver and no checks in crypto framework.

If you would like any check, I think the place to add them is in ahash alg
registraction, in function ahash_prepare_alg add something like:

	if ((alg->init == NULL) ||
	    (alg->digest == NULL) ||
	    (alg->final == NULL) ||
	    (alg->update == NULL) ||
	    (alg->export == NULL) ||
	    (alg->import == NULL))
		return -EINVAL;

The only downsize is this will be usefull in backport (to prevent NULL dereference),
as any new driver will have all those pointers sets.
