Add blkcipher accessors for using kernel data directly without the use of

Also add a CRYPTO_ALG_DMA algorithm capability flag to permit or deny the use
of DMA and hardware accelerators. A hardware accelerator may not be used to
access any arbitrary piece of kernel memory lest it no

Actually it doesn't waste an extra display line. Either the static inline is

I was trying to avoid building a scatterlist completely. There's not much
point because the scatterlist approach in

I don't quite understand all these indirections. What's the problem
with just having a helper that builds the scatterlist for you?
