But there is clearly a need for this functionality, and it's
not just af_alg.  Have a look at net/sunrpc/auth_gss/gss_krb5_crypto.c,
it has three versions of the same crypto code (arc4, cts, and
everything else), in order to deal with continuing requests just
like algif_skcipher.

Perhaps at the end of this we could distill it down to just one.

Cheers,
