From 97a5fee2bd70df9e48cdfdbbacc15d45089228a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2019 18:19:59 +0200 Subject: fs: cifs: switch to RC4 library interface The CIFS code uses the sync skcipher API to invoke the ecb(arc4) skcipher, of which only a single generic C code implementation exists. This means that going through all the trouble of using scatterlists etc buys us very little, and we're better off just invoking the arc4 library directly. This also reverts commit 5f4b55699aaf ("CIFS: Fix BUG() in calc_seckey()"), since it is no longer necessary to allocate sec_key on the heap.
