crypto: doc - add akcipher API
Reference the new akcipher API calls in the kernel crypto API DocBook. Also, fix the comments in the akcipher.h file: double dashes do not look good in the DocBook; fix a typo. Signed-off-by: Stephan Mueller <smueller@chronox.de> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
