crypto: ctr - make rfc3686 asynchronous block cipher
Some hardware crypto drivers register asynchronous ctr(aes), which is left unused in IPSEC because rfc3686 template only supports synchronous block ciphers. Some other drivers register rfc3686(ctr(aes)) to workaround this limitation but not all. This patch changes rfc3686 to use asynchronous block ciphers, to allow async ctr(aes) algorithms to be utilized automatically by IPSEC.
