[PATCH] crypto/arc4: now arc needs blockcipher support

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <hidden>
Date: 2012-06-26 16:13:50
Subsystem: crypto api, the rest · Maintainers: Herbert Xu, "David S. Miller", Linus Torvalds

Since commit ce6dd368 ("crypto: arc4 - improve performance by adding
ecb(arc4)) we need to pull in a blkcipher.

|ERROR: "crypto_blkcipher_type" [crypto/arc4.ko] undefined!
|ERROR: "blkcipher_walk_done" [crypto/arc4.ko] undefined!
|ERROR: "blkcipher_walk_virt" [crypto/arc4.ko] undefined!

On a side note: do we pull in the blkcipher block mode for each cipher now to
gain some extra performance like the openssl project? I was under the
impression that is in general not worth it.
