[dm-devel] [PATCH] dm-crypt: Fix benbi IV constructor if used in authenticated mode

If benbi IV is used in AEAD constructionm for example
  cryptsetup luksFormat <device> --cipher twofish-xts-benbi --key-size 512 --integrity=hmac-sha256
the constructor ues wrong skcipher function and crashes.

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000014
 ...
 EIP: crypt_iv_benbi_ctr+0x15/0x70 [dm_crypt]
 Call Trace:
  ? crypt_subkey_size+0x20/0x20 [dm_crypt]
  crypt_ctr+0x567/0xfc0 [dm_crypt]
  dm_table_add_target+0x15f/0x340 [dm_mod]

This patch fixes the problem with properly using crypt_aead_blocksize() in this case.
