No, no, I didn't miss your mail. I think it can make us clear about what and how
to do by sending the V2 patches.

So we can define two versions 'FB_MTU' for bcast.c and msg.c, such as CRYPTO_MTU
and NON_CRYPTO_MTU. And within tipc_buf_acquire(), we decide which version
BUF_HEADROOM to use by the data size? Such as:

int buf_size;
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_TIPC_CRYPTO) && size == NON_CRYPTO_MTU) {
    buf_size = size + BUF_HEADROOM_non-crypto + BUF_TAILROOM_non-crypto;
} else {
    buf_size = size + BUF_HEADROOM_crypto + BUF_TAILROOM_crypto;
}

Is this feeling?
(It's a little weird to check whether the data should be crypto by data size).

Thanks!
