Linux crypto stack issues.

It was not designed for async operations at all - all helpers, I described previously, do not work in async context, i.e. when several chunks of the same request can be encrypted in parallel, since blkcipher_walk* interfaces provides the same destination buffer for all parts of the same request.
So, to handle misaligned data I have to develop own helpers for HIFN driver.
