Thanks for doing this Joachim. I like the result.

But the duplicate key code is a bit too much. The fact that AES does
it should only serve as a reminder for us to fix it, not to create even
more duplication.

So could you please move the key generation code into a separate file,
say crypto/twofish-common.c which can then be shared by all twofish
implementations?

BTW, please include the actual patches the next time you submit them
along with Signed-off-by lines. You should consult the file
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for detailed instructions.

Thanks,
