Number of overall moments:
* your mailer heavily mangled patch, please fix it or attach patch next
time
* be ready to defend, why /dev/crypto should be char device and not
misc, also why it is not a syscall :)
* overall approach of multiple copy_from_user is noticebly slower than
single copy_from_user of the whole structure and they parse it
according to internal fields
* the same applies to multiple allocations: try to avoid it as much as
possible and allocate whole structure in one go
