Here is the code:

static int crypto_report(struct sk_buff *in_skb, struct nlmsghdr
*in_nlh,

OK let's fix this.

crypto: user - Allow get request with empty driver name

Currently all get requests with an empty driver name fail with
EINVAL.  Since most users actually want to supply an empty driver
name this patch removes this check.

Btw: I tested that patch and it works as expected.
