We do not need any more UAPIs like this. They are hard to maintain, break often, not properly documented, increase the kernel's attack surface, and what they do is better done in userspace. Please refer to the recent thread https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/CZSHRUIJ4RKL.34T4EASV5DNJM@xxxxxxxxx/T/#u where these issues were discussed in detail. - Eric
