Sorry for the late response, but rather than making ad-hoc user
interfaces like this, I'd like this to be part of the crypto user-
space API where you should be able to configure the priorities
of each implementation which determines the system default.

Do we really need this patch right now? If not I think it could
be removed from this set so the others can go in first.

Thanks,
