Implement a NEON fallback for systems that do support NEON but have no support for the optional 64x64->128 polynomial multiplication instruction that is part of the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions. It is based on the paper "Fast Software Polynomial Multiplication on ARM Processors Using the NEON Engine" by Danilo Camara, Conrado Gouvea, Julio Lopez and Ricardo Dahab (https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01506572) On a 32-bit guest executing under KVM on a Cortex-A57, the new code is not only 4x faster than the generic table based GHASH driver, it is also time invariant. (Note that the existing vmull.p64 code is 16x faster on this core). Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
