OpenSWAN is an IKE implement
The TX/RX path all use the local->wep_tfm to encrypt and decrypt
packets. Each {en|de}crypt operation need set a new RC4key,
this may corrupt the previous set key that is still being used.
Thus cause a lot of decrypton error or encryption with the wrong key.
Use two tfm (tx_tfm and rx_tfm) to avoid

ipw3945 TKIP hwcrypto only support RC4 encryption,
so the stack needs to pre compute the michael MIC and the RC4key
for it.

BTW, why not use xfrm instead? Then you dont have to worry about racoon.
What do you mean by this?

As BHs are off in loopback_xmit(), preemption cannot occurs, so we can use
__get_cpu_var() instead of per_cpu() (and avoid a
preempt_enable()/preempt_disable() pair)
