The strlen() can be replaced with raid6_pq_default_alg[0].

(*algo)->name is a statically initialized kernel string, which is terminated.
The module parameter string set function also ensures that raid6_pq_default_alg
will be terminated. You can safely use strcmp() here instead of strncmp().

Why continue if the default algorithm is invalid?

Misspelling: s/performace/performance/
Also, as per the kernel coding style guide, kernel messages do not need to be
terminated with a period.

Other than those nits, this seems fine.
