AEAD requires the caller to specify the following information separate
from the data stream. This information allows the AEAD interface handler
to identify the AAD, ciphertext/plaintext and the authentication tag:

        * Associated authentication data of arbitrary length and
          length

        * Length of authentication tag for encryption

Patch applied.
