The request data structures are encapsulated by a union as the symmetric cipher implementation is either exclusively used for "normal" symmetric ciphers or for AEAD ciphers. The define MAX_AEAD_ASSOCLEN restricts the size of the associated authentication data. The kernel must allocate memory for this data to be stored for the cipher operation. To prevent an excessive use of memory, it is limited to 128 bytes, which is considered to be a sensible size.
