Actually, I am merging android-common tree and test our device.
I use arm64 and clang-r437112b.

I'm not sure which option is the right one, grep 'BLAKE' .config shows:

CONFIG_CRYPTO_BLAKE2B=y
# CONFIG_CRYPTO_BLAKE2S is not set
# CONFIG_CRYPTO_LIB_BLAKE2S_GENERIC=y

and... I found that my patch breaks arm32 build, sorry for that.
