There is no CMAC entry apparently ... despite the fact that CMAC is a proposed RFC standard for IPsec.

It might be safer to move that to 14 since it's currently unassigned and then go through whatever channels are required to allocate it.  Mostly this affects key setting.  So this means my patch would break AH_RSA setkey calls (which the kernel doesn't support anyways).
