IMHO set them to false in hash update and init, set finish false and last_req
true
for hash final, and set both true for hash finup and digest.
As Herbert tells in https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-crypto/msg28658.html
you should support scenario export + update/finup, so basically export is
reading
state but it do not halt your hash driver.
