This patch adds countersize to CTR mode.
The template is now ctr(algo,noncesize,ivsize,countersize).
For example, ctr(aes,4,8,4) indicates the counterblock
will be composed of a salt/nonce that is 4 bytes, an iv
that is 8 bytes and the counter is 4 bytes.
When noncesize + ivsize + countersize

It's somewhat nicer to just use size_t in the kernel for these sorts
of data types. If you care about the exact number of bytes used by the
variable, types like u32 make the code more parsable.

It is usually appropriate to print something to the system log when
there is an error condition in the kernel code. That can help triage
down the road when people have troubles.

I am familiar with CryptoDev and Cryproc. Will you be implementing
anything similar to what these projects are currently doing? Or do you
have
