I actually do use incremental hashing later on. BPF currently vmallocs() a big temporary buffer just so it can fill it and hash it. I change it to hash as it goes.
How much data is this supposed to hash on average? If it's a large amount then perhaps using the existing crypto API would be a better option than adding this.
