When an algorithm of the new "lskcipher" type is exposed through the
"skcipher" API, calls to crypto_skcipher_setkey() don't pass on the
CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_FORBID_WEAK_KEYS flag to the lskcipher.  This causes
self-test failures for ecb(des), as weak keys are not rejected anymore.
Fix this.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
