6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Stefan Berger stefanb@linux.ibm.com
commit 48e4fd6d54f54d0ceab5a952d73e47a9454a6ccb upstream.
Add module alias with the algorithm cra_name similar to what we have for RSA-related and other algorithms.
The kernel attempts to modprobe asymmetric algorithms using the names "crypto-$cra_name" and "crypto-$cra_name-all." However, since these aliases are currently missing, the modules are not loaded. For instance, when using the `add_key` function, the hash algorithm is typically loaded automatically, but the asymmetric algorithm is not.
Steps to test:
1. Create certificate
openssl req -x509 -sha256 -newkey ec \ -pkeyopt "ec_paramgen_curve:secp384r1" -keyout key.pem -days 365 \ -subj '/CN=test' -nodes -outform der -out nist-p384.der
2. Optionally, trace module requests with: trace-cmd stream -e module &
3. Trigger add_key call for the cert:
# keyctl padd asymmetric "" @u < nist-p384.der 641069229 # lsmod | head -2 Module Size Used by ecdsa_generic 16384 0
