I wonder, if drivers end up calling this, isn't it easier to do the
alignment in crypto_aead_ctx() directly? There are over 300 callers (not
sure about the padding though, it may need still driver changes unless
we can add it to something like crypto_tfm_alg_alignmask()). Or is the
expectation that not all drivers need a DMA alignment?
