+EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick() validates the parameters component of the key
+given by B<ctx> like EVP_PKEY_param_check() does. However some algorithm
+implementations may offer a quicker form of validation that omits some checks in
+order to perform a lightweight sanity check of the key. If a quicker form is not
+provided then this function call does the same thing as EVP_PKEY_param_check().

EVP_PKEY_public_check() validates the public component of the key given by B<ctx>.
EVP_PKEY_private_check() validates the private component of the key given by B<ctx>.
