Sorry, I somehow deleted that bit while adding the changelog :)

Thanks, I'll run that from now on.

Here it is again:

The highlight of this batch is the new run-time self-test framework
for algorithms.  This reorganises the same tests that we've always
had such that they're run at algorithm registration time so that
only algorithms passing the tests of their type are made available
to users.  Hopefully that means people won't be sending me any
more algorithm updates that fail these tests :)

Apart from that a new algorithm type for random number generators.
The only two algorithms in that type are the existing kernel RNG
plus a PRNG based on AES.  This is used by IPsec for IV generation.

We also have a new implementation of CRC32c that uses the Intel
instruction for CRC32c.
