crypto: nx - Check for bogus firmware properties
The nx driver reads two crucial paramters from the firmware for each crypto algorithm, the maximum SG list length and byte limit. Unfortunately those two parameters may be bogus, or worse they may be absent altogether. When this happens the algorithms will still register successfully but will fail when used or tested. This patch adds checks to report any firmware entries which are found to be bogus, and avoid registering algorithms which have bogus parameters. A warning is also printed when an algorithm is not registered because of this as there may have been no firmware entries for it at all.
