crypto: api - Check spawn->alg under lock in crypto_drop_spawn

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1864775

commit 7db3b61b upstream.

We need to check whether spawn->alg is NULL under lock as otherwise
the algorithm could be removed from under us after we have checked
it and found it to be non-NULL.  This could cause us to remove the
spawn from a non-existent list.
