[dpdk-dev] [EXT] [PATCH] examples/l2fwd-crypto: remove key size validation

[Akhil Goyal]

> In the example application the key can be provided by the user or
> generated randomly by the example application.
> 
> Then a validation is done in order to check if the key size is
> supported in the algorithm capabilities.
> 
> As a result of patch [1] application should support the case where a
> user supplies a wrapped key.
> 
> In order to align with this patch and be able to use the app with
> wrapped keys, app should remove the validation of key size in the
> application and rely on a PMD key size validation.
> 
> The validation is removed in case the key is provided by by user, and
> kept in case the key should be generated by the application.
