Amol,

I still think the handle based registration is too
complex for this feature.

I recommend a simpler lib design and add it to
CryptoPkg instead of SecurityPkg.  Providing a 
different method to access the hashing functions
in BaseCryptLib is not a Security feature, it is
a Crypto feature.

Thanks,

Mike
