crypto: ansi_prng - alloc cipher just in init

As reported by Eric Sesterhenn the re-allocation of the cipher in reset leads
to:

because a spin lock is held and crypto_alloc_base() may sleep.
There is no reason to re-allocate the cipher, the state is resetted in
->setkey(). This patches makes the cipher allocation a one time thing and
moves it to init.
