Gilad Ben-Yossef 6b80ea389a crypto: change transient busy return code to -ENOSPC
The crypto API was using the -EBUSY return value to indicate
both a hard failure to submit a crypto operation into a
transformation provider when the latter was busy and the backlog
mechanism was not enabled as well as a notification that the
operation was queued into the backlog when the backlog mechanism
was enabled.

Having the same return code indicate two very different conditions
depending on a flag is both error prone and requires extra runtime
check like the following to discern between the cases:

	if (err == -EINPROGRESS ||
	    (err == -EBUSY && (ahash_request_flags(req) &
			       CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG)))

This patch changes the return code used to indicate a crypto op
failed due to the transformation provider being transiently busy
to -ENOSPC.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
