Only the ESSIV IV generation mode used to use cc->cipher so it could
instantiate the bare cipher used to encrypt the IV. However, this is
now taken care of by the ESSIV template, and so no users of cc->cipher
remain. So remove it altogether.

Might be wise to bump the dm-crypt target's version number (from
{1, 19, 0} to {1, 20, 0}) at the end of this patch too though...

But again, Herbert please feel free to pull this into your 5.4 branch.

Thanks,
Mike

The function should be exactly the same, dependencies on needed modules are set.

In cryptsetup we always report dm target + kernel version,
so we know that since version 5.4 it uses crypto API for ESSIV.
I think version bump here is really not so important.

Just my two cents :)

Anyway, thanks everyone.

Yes, that's fine.. I staged it for 5.4 yesterday without the version bump.

Thanks,
Mike
