       PBKDF2-params ::= SEQUENCE {
           salt CHOICE {
             specified OCTET STRING,
             otherSource AlgorithmIdentifier {{PBKDF2-SaltSources}}
           },
           iterationCount INTEGER (1..MAX),
           keyLength INTEGER (1..MAX) OPTIONAL,
           prf AlgorithmIdentifier {{PBKDF2-PRFs}} DEFAULT algid-hmacWithSHA1
       }

      The prf has a default value so it should not be DER encoded.
