Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] padata fixes

This patchset fixes two races that I found when I tested padata in combination with pcrypt ablkcipher algorithms (still unpublished) and dm-crypt. The mainline codebase seems not to trigger them, however we need to fix these races before I can push the pcrypt ablkcipher extensions.

The patchset is based on the crypto-2.6 tree and is also available via git:

The following changes since commit f8f54e190ddb4ed697036b60f5e2ae6dd45b801c:
