The interface for the active ops is a bit clunky as the syscall interface
doesn't provide sufficient argument space to pass everything I need to
specify. Some basic integer arguments are specified in a struct and more
complex options through a string of key=val pairs - just so I don't have to
deal with the compat code for dealing with a struct containing pointers
(but I can change to that if it's preferable).

It sounds like the struct would still have pointers to strings that would need parsing, so I'm not sure it's that much overhead to handle the short strings of key=val pairs. But I'll agree that it feels clunky.

An extra multiply here.

Did you intend to include encrypt/decrypt/sign here?
