Can you split the nhpoly1305 changes into a separate patch? They're a bit
different from the rest of this patch, which is fixing up the crypto library
interface that's new in v5.5. The nhpoly1305 changes apply to v5.0 and don't
have anything to do with the crypto library interface, and they're also a bit
different since they replace PAGE_SIZE with 4K rather than unlimited with 4K.
