[PATCH v1 0/7] AES for PPC/SPE
The following patches add support for 64bit accelerated AES
calculation on PPC processors with SPE instruction set. Besides
the AES core module it implements ECB/CBC/CTR/XTS as block
ciphers. The implementation takes care of the following
constraints:
- save SPE registers for interrupt context compatibility
- disable preemption only for short intervals
- endian independant
Module passes tcrypt mode=10 tests. Synthethic AES speedup
factors from insmod tcrypt sec=3 mode=200 taken on e500v2
800 MHz (TP Link WDR4900) compared with the generic kernel
module.

Additionally numbers from an iperf transfer benchmark. They
include the AES optimized and the SHA256 optimized module.
