[CRYPTO] doc: Fix typo in hash example
there is a tiny bug in Documentation/crypto/api-intro.txt. The file has the following example code: struct scatterlist sg[2]; [...] if (crypto_hash_digest(&desc, &sg, 2, result)) which does not match the declaration of crypto_hash_digest() in include/linux/crypto.h. (static inline int crypto_hash_digest(struct hash_desc *desc, struct scatterlist *sg, unsigned int nbytes, u8 *out) The code in the example passes the address of a pointer (an array actually) as the second argument, while the function expects the pointer itself. I have attached a patch to fix this. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
