Actually tried to grep crypto_akcipher_set_pub_key() but there are not any usages of this API in Linux drivers. What is the preferred method to verify a RSA signature inside any Linux GPL driver, is there any standard interface API to verify RSA signature by importing input of raw data and public key or else it is recommended method to use below set low level of API crypto_alloc_akcipher(), akcipher_request_alloc(), akcipher_request_set_crypt(), crypto_akcipher_verify().
