Re: [PATCH] mac80211: aes_ccm: move struct aead_req off the stack

Is the aad[] actually reused? I would assume it only affects the mac
on encryption, and the verification on decryption but I don't think
we actually need it back from the crypto routines.
I don't think it's reused.
Exactly what you said above :-) My patch only touches CCM but as you
said,

"""
'Also there's B_0/J_0 for CCM/GCM, and the 'zero' thing that GMAC
has.
"""
Ah, but we can/should do the same for the others, no?
