Subject: [v2 PATCH 4/13] crypto: aead - Do not set cra_type for new style instances

The function aead_geniv_alloc currently sets cra_type even for
new style instances.  This is unnecessary and may hide bugs such
as when our caller uses crypto_register_instance instead of the
correct aead_register_instance.
