This one is a little thorny. All the various block cipher modes
functions and callbacks take a void *key. This allows them to be used
with multiple kinds of block ciphers.
However, the implementations of those callbacks are the normal typed
functions, like AES_encrypt. Those take AES_KEY *key. While, at the ABI
level, this is perfectly fine, C considers this undefined behavior.
If we wish to preserve this genericness, we could either instantiate
multiple versions of these mode functions or create wrappers of
AES_encrypt, etc., that take void *key.
The former means more code and is tedious without C++ templates (maybe
someday...). The latter would not be difficult for a compiler to
optimize out. C mistakenly allowed comparing function pointers for
equality, which means a compiler cannot replace pointers to wrapper
functions with the real thing. (That said, the performance-sensitive
bits already act in chunks, e.g. ctr128_f, so the function call overhead
shouldn't matter.)
But our only 128-bit block cipher is AES anyway, so I just switched
things to use AES_KEY throughout. AES is doing fine, and hopefully we
would have the sense not to pair a hypothetical future block cipher with
so many modes!

gRPC builds on Debian Jessie, which has GCC 4.9.2, and builds with
-Wtype-limits, which makes it warn about code intended for 64-bit
systems when building on 32-bit systems.
We have tried to avoid these issues with Clang previously by guarding
with “sizeof(size_t) > 4”, but this version of GCC isn't smart enough to
figure that out.

The point was to remove the silly moduli.
