No AH is completely useless.  However, this applies perfectly to
ESP, in conjunction with authenc.  Obviously we would need to add
request linking to authenc (AEAD) as well so that it can pass it
along to sha.

BTW, does any of this interleaving apply to AES? If so we should
explore adding request linking to skcipher as well.

Cheers,
