Subject: [PATCH v3 05/12] crypto: LLVMLinux: Remove VLAIS from crypto/n2_core.c

From: Behan Webster <behanw@...verseincode.com>

Replaced the use of a Variable Length Array In Struct (VLAIS) with a C99
compliant equivalent. This patch allocates the appropriate amount of memory
using a char array using the SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK macro.

The new code can be compiled with both gcc and clang.
