4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 73bf20ef3df262026c3470241ae4ac8196943ffa upstream.
The VMAC template assumes the block cipher has a 128-bit block size, but it failed to check for that. Thus it was possible to instantiate it using a 64-bit block size cipher, e.g. "vmac(cast5)", causing uninitialized memory to be used.
Add the needed check when instantiating the template.
