[PATCH v4 02/14] crypto: chacha20-generic - don't unnecessarily use atomic walk

From: Eric Biggers
Date: Fri Nov 16 2018 - 20:28:57 EST


From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

chacha20-generic doesn't use SIMD instructions or otherwise disable
preemption, so passing atomic=true to skcipher_walk_virt() is
unnecessary.
