crypto: xcbc - Remove VLA usage
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this uses
the maximum blocksize and adds a sanity check. For xcbc, the blocksize
must always be 16, so use that, since it's already being enforced during
instantiation.
