Hi Herbert,

The alg->cra_name and alg->cra_driver_name, from the description,
cra_name is the algorithm name and cra_driver_name is the driver name.
But when I read the code, I often get confuse about these two names.
They often mix each other.  

Can you give me some instruction about them? or Can we make them more clear? Thanks.
