Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] crypto: removing various VLAs

v2:
	As suggested by Herbert Xu, the blocksize and alignmask checks
	have been moved to crypto_check_alg.
	So, now, all the other separate checks are not necessary.
	Also, the defines have been moved to include/crypto/algapi.h.

v1:
	As suggested by Laura Abbott[1], I'm resending my patch with
	MAX_BLOCKSIZE and MAX_ALIGNMASK defined in an header, so they
	can be used in other places.
	I took this opportunity to deal with some other VLAs not
	handled in the old patch.
