Most modes can be chained, e.g., CBC, PCBC, OFB, CFB and CTR.
As it stands algif_skcipher requres all algorithms to support
chaining.

You're right, XTS in its current form cannot be chained.  So we
do need a way to mark that for algif_skcipher.

CTS can be easily chained.  You just need to always keep two blocks
from being processed until you reach the end.
