Commit 1e562deacecc ("crypto: rsassa-pkcs1 - Migrate to sig_alg backend")
enforced that rsassa-pkcs1 sign/verify operations specify a hash
algorithm.  That is necessary because per RFC 8017 sec 8.2, a hash
algorithm identifier must be prepended to the hash before generating or
verifying the signature ("Full Hash Prefix").

However the commit went too far in that it changed user space behavior:
KEYCTL_PKEY_QUERY system calls now return -EINVAL unless they specify a
hash algorithm.  Intel Wireless Daemon (iwd) is one application issuing
such system calls (for EAP-TLS).

Closer analysis of the Embedded Linux Library (ell) used by iwd reveals
that the problem runs even deeper:  When iwd uses TLS 1.1 or earlier, it
not only queries for keys, but performs sign/verify operations without
specifying a hash algorithm.  These legacy TLS versions concatenate an
MD5 to a SHA-1 hash and omit the Full Hash Prefix:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/ell/ell.git/tree/ell/tls-suites.c#n97

TLS 1.1 was deprecated in 2021 by RFC 8996, but removal of support was
inadvertent in this case.  It probably should be coordinated with iwd
maintainers first.

So reinstate support for such legacy protocols by defaulting to hash
algorithm "none" which uses an empty Full Hash Prefix.

If it is later on decided to remove TLS 1.1 support but still allow
KEYCTL_PKEY_QUERY without a hash algorithm, that can be achieved by
reverting the present commit and replacing it with the following patch:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/ZxalYZwH5UiGX5uj@wunner.de/

It's worth noting that Python's cryptography library gained support for
such legacy use cases very recently, so they do seem to still be a thing.
The Python developers identified IKE version 1 as another protocol
omitting the Full Hash Prefix:

https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/10226
https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/5495

The author of those issues, Zoltan Kelemen, spent considerable effort
searching for test vectors but only found one in a 2019 blog post by
Kevin Jones.  Add it to testmgr.h to verify correctness of this feature.

Examination of wpa_supplicant as well as various IKE daemons (libreswan,
strongswan, isakmpd, raccoon) has determined that none of them seems to
use the kernel's Key Retention Service, so iwd is the only affected user
space application known so far.
