Here's my status.

I have a patch to make these depend on !VMAP_STACK.

According to Herbert, these are fine. I'm personally less convinced
since I'm very confused as to what "async" means in the crypto code,
but I'm going to leave these alone.

I have a patch.

I have a patch to convert this to, drumroll please:
priv->tx_tfm_mic = crypto_alloc_shash("michael_mic", 0,
CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC);
Herbert, I'm at a loss as what a "shash" that's "ASYNC" even means.

This:
size_t zero_padding = (0x10 - (src_len & 0x0f));
is an amazing line of code...
But this driver uses cbc and wants to do synchronous crypto, and I
don't think that the crypto API supports real synchronous crypto using
CBC, so I'm going to let someone else fix this.

Herbert, can you fix this?

I have a patch.
My pile is here:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/luto/linux.git/log/?h=crypto
I'll send out the patches soon.
