crypto: api - Redo lookup on EEXIST
When two crypto algorithm lookups occur at the same time with different names for the same algorithm, e.g., ctr(aes-generic) and ctr(aes), they will both be instantiated. However, only one of them can be registered. The second instantiation will fail with EEXIST. Avoid failing the second lookup by making it retry, but only once because there are tricky names such as gcm_base(ctr(aes),ghash) that will always fail, despite triggering instantiation and EEXIST.
