Let's drop 'lskcipher' from the kfunc names and ctx struct.
bpf users don't need to know the internal implementation details.
bpf_crypto_encrypt/decrypt() is clear enough.

The only reason I added it was the existence of AEAD subset of crypto API. And this subset can also be implemented in bpf later, and there will be inconsistency in naming then if we add aead in future names.
WDYT?
