[dm-devel] [PATCH v6 3/7] md: dm-crypt: infer ESSIV block cipher from cipher string directly

[Ard Biesheuvel]

Instead of allocating a crypto skcipher tfm 'foo' and attempting to
infer the encapsulated block cipher from the driver's 'name' field,
directly parse the string that we used to allocated the tfm. These
are always identical (unless the allocation failed, in which case
we bail anyway), but using the string allows us to use it in the
allocation, which is something we will need when switching to the
'essiv' crypto API template.
