Because the caller is going to be allocating memory for the output,
we need to provide a way for them to know how much memory to
allocate.
This presumably will depend on the key size.
So something like
int (*maxsize)(struct crypto_akcipher *tfm);
is needed.
You should also provide setkey here. You can't just save a pointer
to the key. The transform must hold the key physically as the
original may go away. It should also ensure that the key is
actually valid for the transform.

base already has ctx so you should get rid of ctx and move base
to the end of the struct.
