+ *
+ * The caller probably knows the hash length for the chosen algorithm, but
+ * in order to provide a general interface, and output_size parameter is
+ * provided.
+ *
+ * @algo_name: Hash algorithm to use
+ * @data: Data to hash
+ * @len: Lengh of data to hash in bytes
+ * @output: Place to put hash value
+ * @output_size: On entry, pointer to the number of bytes available in
+ * output. On exit, pointer to the number of bytes used.
+ * If NULL, then it is assumed that the caller has
+ * allocated enough space for the hash. This is possible
+ * since the caller is selecting the algorithm.
+ * @return 0 if ok, -ve on error: -EPROTONOSUPPORT for an unknown algorithm,
+ * -ENOSPC if the output buffer is not large enough.
