crypto: skcipher - Add low-level skcipher interface
This patch allows skcipher algorithms and instances to be created and registered with the crypto API. They are accessible through the top-level skcipher interface, along with ablkcipher/blkcipher algorithms and instances. This patch also introduces a new parameter called chunk size which is meant for ciphers such as CTR and CTS which ostensibly can handle arbitrary lengths, but still behave like block ciphers in that you can only process a partial block at the very end. For these ciphers the block size will continue to be set to 1 as it is now while the chunk size will be set to the underlying block size. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
