  /var/lib/dkms/gost-crypto/0.3.2/build/gost28147_basic.c:103:29: error: 
‘CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN’ undeclared (first use in this function); did you 
mean ‘CRYPTO_TFM_NEED_KEY’?
-   103 |   crypto_tfm_set_flags(tfm, CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN);

+ 
+ [Test case]
+ 
+ $ sudo apt install gost-crypto-dkms
+ 
+ Build error is reported in make.log.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ 
+ Fix by adding some #ifdef's to use the right crypto define names with
+ kernel 5.8.
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ 
+ The source code for the 5.4 kernel remains the same, so there is no
+ regression potential. The new changes are all conditionals and they are
+ all applied to the 5.8 kernel.
