Actually I'm instantiate a crypto_nivaead_type algorithm and choose for
cpu_chainiv as the IV generator for that algorithm. If I want to do the
same with eseqiv it would require to add aead support to eseqiv.
Is this what you are thinking about, or is there a way to instantiate a
crypto_aead_type algorithm and notify the ablkcipher to choose for
eseqiv as it's default IV genarator?
