Hello:

This series was applied to netdev/net-next.git (main)
by Jakub Kicinski [off-list ref]:

The FCrypt "block cipher" and the PCBC mode of operation are obsolete
and insecure.  Since their only user is net/rxrpc/, they belong there,
not in the crypto API.

Therefore, this series removes these algorithms from the crypto API and
replaces them with local implementations in net/rxrpc/.

[...]
Here is the summary with links:
  - [net-next,v2,1/5] net/rxrpc: Add local FCrypt-PCBC implementation
    https://git.kernel.org/netdev/net-next/c/f10e73dffd2a
  - [net-next,v2,2/5] net/rxrpc: Use local FCrypt-PCBC implementation
    https://git.kernel.org/netdev/net-next/c/97b768514a6e
  - [net-next,v2,3/5] net/rxrpc: Reimplement DES-PCBC using DES library
    https://git.kernel.org/netdev/net-next/c/432042e25e33
  - [net-next,v2,4/5] crypto: fcrypt - Remove support for FCrypt block cipher
    https://git.kernel.org/netdev/net-next/c/374efbdc85d0
  - [net-next,v2,5/5] crypto: pcbc - Remove support for PCBC mode

You are awesome, thank you!
