From: Chuck Lever <[e-mail]>

It is not clear from documenting comments, specifications, or code
usage what value the gss_krb5_enctype.blocksize field is supposed
to store. The "encryption blocksize" depends only on the cipher
being used, so that value can be derived where it's needed instead
of stored as a constant.

RFC 3961 Section 5.2 says:

> cipher block size, c
>    This is the block size of the block cipher underlying the
>    encryption and decryption functions indicated above, used for key
>    derivation and for the size of the message confounder and initial
>    vector.  (If a block cipher is not in use, some comparable
>    parameter should be determined.)  It must be at least 5 octets.
>
>    This is not actually an independent parameter; rather, it is a
>    property of the functions E and D.  It is listed here to clarify
>    the distinction between it and the message block size, m.

In the Linux kernel's implemenation of the SunRPC RPCSEC GSS
Kerberos 5 mechanism, the cipher block size, which is dependent on
the encryption and decryption transforms, is used only in
krb5_derive_key(), so it is straightforward to replace it.
