Subject: [PATCH 6/6] crypto: cfb - avoid VLA use

We avoid 3 VLAs[1] by always allocating MAX_BLOCKSIZE bytes or,
when needed for alignement, MAX_BLOCKSIZE + MAX_ALIGNMASK bytes.
We also check the selected cipher at instance creation time, if
it doesn't comply with these limits, the creation will fail.
