Apologies, but doesn't that do the opposite of what we want?

Documentation/crypto/architecture.rst says:

	The mask flag restricts the type of cipher. The only allowed flag is
	CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC to restrict the cipher lookup function to
	asynchronous ciphers. Usually, a caller provides a 0 for the mask
	flag.

Don't we want only synchronous ciphers?
