[PATCH 0/3] AF_ALG: Remove support for AIO and old-style drivers

[Demi Marie Obenour via B4 Relay <devnull+demiobenour.gmail.com@kernel.org>]

AF_ALG is a deprecated API only useful for compatibility with existing
userspace.  It has had a lot of vulnerabilities, including the infamous
CopyFail.

Rip out support for offload drivers, which tend to be buggy.  Also rip
out support for AIO, which actually bloats the entire socket subsystem.

Only compile-tested.
