So if we want to make progress on this we need the first 3 patches rewviewed by the crypto maintainers. In fact I'd prefer to get them merged through the crypto tree as well, and would make sure we have a branch that pulls them in for the nvme changes. I'll try to find some time to review the nvme bits as well.
That is _actually_ being addressed already. Nicolai Stange send a patchset for ephemeral keys, FFDHE support, and FIPS-related thingies for the in-kernel DH crypto implementation (https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20211209090358.28231-1-nstange@suse.de/ (local)). This obsoletes my preliminary patches, and I have ported my patchset to run on top of those. Question is how to continue from here; I can easily rebase my patchset and send it relative to Nicolais patches. But then we'll be bound to the acceptance of those patches, so I'm not quite sure if that's the best way to proceed.
