"no use" => "no known current use".

This doesn't compile on arm, since blake2s_compress_generic() isn't defined.

Also, the wrong value is being passed for the 'inc' argument.

2048 iterations is also a lot.  Doing a lot of iterations here doesn't
meaningfully increase the test coverage.

And please run checkpatch; those are some very long lines :-(
