It does not - your code only supposed to work with ecb, since it is what
was requested during initialization time. This new scheme with templates
helps alot for ciphers/crypto modes which do not support several
templates, so I used old scheme with 'cipher' only template, not
'ecb(cipher)', 'cbc(cipher)' and so on.

And, btw, do not use mutex in encryption path, it is not supposed to
sleep in ipsec.

HIFN supports at least 12 different ciphers/mode (3des, des and aes,
each one with 4 modes), so it is not a good idea to put them all into
separated structures, so I rised a question about it.
