The calculation of the length of a protected key based on the protected key type is scattered over certain places within the pkey code. By introducing a new inline function pkey_keytype_to_size() this can be centralized and the calling code can be reduced and simplified. With this also comes a slight rework of the generation of protected keys. Now the pkey_pckmo module is able to generate all but ECC keys.

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 reStructuredText 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.
