[PATCH 1/6] crypto: trivial comment improvements

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Just some minor comment nits. 

- little-endian is better than low-endian
- and since it is called essiv everywere it should also be essiv 
  in the comments (and not ess_iv)
