The main difference is that IV generation is moved out

Thanks! Please hold on though because I'm not quite done with
the driver-side skcipher interface yet.
but I am not sure block ciphers with IV generation - for e.g.
seqiv(rfc3686(ctr(aes))) - make any sense and/or are useful.
This should be removed completely as IV generation is now done
at the AEAD level only.
Cheers,
