Can you clarify the use case of this algorithm? In particular,
who is going to use it in the kernel? This doesn't seem to be
a candidate for use via algif since there aren't any or aren't
likely going to be any hardware implementations.

If we can narrow down who is going to use it perhaps we can then
figure out the appropriate interface for this.

Thanks,
