crypto: api - check for ERR pointers in crypto_destroy_tfm()
Given that crypto_alloc_tfm() may return ERR pointers, and to avoid crashes on obscure error paths where such pointers are presented to crypto_destroy_tfm() (such as [0]), add an ERR_PTR check there before dereferencing the second argument as a struct crypto_tfm pointer.
