chcr: Support for Chelsio's Crypto Hardware
The Chelsio's Crypto Hardware can perform the following operations: SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384 and SHA512, HMAC(SHA1), HMAC(SHA224), HMAC(SHA256), HMAC(SHA384), HAMC(SHA512), AES-128-CBC, AES-192-CBC, AES-256-CBC, AES-128-XTS, AES-256-XTS This patch implements the driver for above mentioned features. This driver is an Upper Layer Driver which is attached to Chelsio's LLD (cxgb4) and uses the queue allocated by the LLD for sending the crypto requests to the Hardware and receiving the responses from it. The crypto operations can be performed by Chelsio's hardware from the userspace applications and/or from within the kernel space using the kernel's crypto API. The above mentioned crypto features have been tested using kernel's tests mentioned in testmgr.h. They also have been tested from user space using libkcapi and Openssl.
