Hi Gilad,

Requirement to copy IV back is different for various mode. You can
check software template(cbc, ctr,...)  for reference. Basic idea is
Update IV such that user can use the same context to continue
encryption.

e.g   CBC  mode uses last encrypted block as IV for current block.
That why we have to copy last 16 byte to req->info

        Note : For in-place decryption we save the last block(IV for
next) in local buffer to avoid  getting written by Plaintext.

for ctr  mode: driver should increment counter(last 4 bytes of IV)
based to no of block( 1 block implies 1 counter increment) processed


You can use following  kcapi command to compare the results with sw
crypto. "-s"  switch will use the same context for "-d" No. of
iterations

./kcapi -x 1 -e -s  -d 4 -c "cbc(aes)" -k

Copy of last block is required for CBC mode only and CBC input buffer
is always in multiple of 16(Block size).
Above change not required for CBC and will not work with mode like ctr.
