Hi,

I thought about that, I just did it like this as I thought it might be easier to
read and I noticed a few other areas in the kernel that did this way.  After a
closer look I can see we have both patterns, perhaps we need a mcro/helper.

I don't mind either way, I can fix, if the crypto maintainers want to adjust the
patch that would work too.
