OK got it working with:

        ptr = &data[0];
        *ptr++ = 0x04; /* uncompressed */
        memcpy(&ptr[0], &x[2], x_size);
        memcpy(&ptr[x_size], &x[2 + x_size + 2], x_size);
        ret = crypto_akcipher_set_pub_key(tfm, data, 2 * x_size + 1);
        crypto_free_akcipher(tfm);

Had still a few "off-bys".

Makes me wonder why this is not in ASN.1.
E.g. TPM2 stuff and for instance RSA code takes ASN.1.

This all and the required prefix byte really should be explained in
the documentation of this function. I.e. follows the RFC in the sense
that number is big-endian and has the prefix byte, but it does not
follow it in the sense that x and y are not in input octect strings.

Why is that? Does not feel right intuitively.
