Well, not exactly: this part is looking if the crypto algorithm is
already in this pool, so that it can increment refcounter rather than
initialize a new tfm. In case strcmp(cpool[i].alg, alg) fails, this loop
will never goto out.
I.e., you issued previously setsockopt()s for TCP-MD5 and TCP-AO with
HMAC-SHA1, so in this pool there'll be two algorithms: "md5" and
"hmac(sha1)". Now if you want to use TCP-AO with "cmac(aes128)" or
"hmac(sha256)", you won't find them in the pool yet.
