H A D | n2_core.c | 23a6564a Sat Nov 09 11:09:47 CST 2019 Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> crypto: niagara2 - switch to skcipher API
Commit 7a7ffe65c8c5 ("crypto: skcipher - Add top-level skcipher interface") dated 20 august 2015 introduced the new skcipher API which is supposed to replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher. While all consumers of the API have been converted long ago, some producers of the ablkcipher remain, forcing us to keep the ablkcipher support routines alive, along with the matching code to expose [a]blkciphers via the skcipher API.
So switch this driver to the skcipher API, allowing us to finally drop the ablkcipher code in the near future.
