If benbi IV is used in AEAD construction, for example:
cryptsetup luksFormat <device> --cipher twofish-xts-benbi --key-size 512 --integrity=hmac-sha256
the constructor uses wrong skcipher function and crashes:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000014
...
EIP: crypt_iv_benbi_ctr+0x15/0x70 [dm_crypt]
Call Trace:
? crypt_subkey_size+0x20/0x20 [dm_crypt]
crypt_ctr+0x567/0xfc0 [dm_crypt]
dm_table_add_target+0x15f/0x340 [dm_mod]
Fix this by properly using crypt_aead_blocksize() in this case.

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.
