Subject: Is aesni-intel module required for openssl

Is it necessary to load aesni-intel module like 'modprobe aesni-intel' ?
Loading this module makes no difference in openssl speed output.

openssl speed -elapsed -evp aes-128-cbc

before loading aesni-intel module

type             16 bytes     64 bytes    256 bytes   1024 bytes   8192
bytes
aes-128-cbc     561737.40k   598685.65k   610372.15k   610802.35k

after loading aesni-intel module
