Hello

You are right, I have totally mis-understood the export/import functions by just reading them from crypto/md5.c.
Reading them from drivers/crypto/* is better.

Incidental question, I need to use the MD5 IV for export_md5 function, but they are not defined anywhere (unlike SHAxx ones), does this is voluntary or do you will accept a patch for adding them.
