Subject: [PATCH 11/16] crypto: essiv - allow digestsize to be greater than keysize

In essiv mode, the digest of the hash algorithm is used as the key to
encrypt the IV. The current implementation requires that the digest size
of the hash algorithm is equal to the key size, which will exclude
algorithms that do not meet this situation, such as essiv(cbc(sm4),sm3),
the hash result of sm3 is fixed 256 bits, and the key size of sm4
symmetric algorithm is fixed 128 bits, which makes it impossible to use
essiv mode.

This patch allows algorithms whose digest size is greater than key size
to use esssiv mode by truncating the digest.
