o make all crypto drivers have a device_t; pseudo drivers like the s/w
crypto driver synthesize one
o change the api between the crypto subsystem and drivers to use kobj;
cryptodev_if.m defines this api
o use the fact that all crypto drivers now have a device_t to add support
for specifying which of several potential devices to use when doing
crypto operations
o add new ioctls that allow user apps to select a specific crypto device
to use (previous ioctls maintained for compatibility)
o overhaul crypto subsystem code to eliminate lots of cruft and hide
implementation details from drivers
o bring in numerous fixes from Michale Richardson/hifn; mostly for
795x parts
o add an optional mechanism for mmap'ing the hifn 795x public key h/w
to user space for use by openssl (not enabled by default)
o update crypto test tools to use new ioctl's and add cmd line options
to specify a device to use for tests
These changes will also enable much future work on improving the core
crypto subsystem; including proper load balancing and interposing code
between the core and drivers to dispatch small operations to the s/w
driver as appropriate.
These changes were instigated by the work of Michael Richardson.

For older CPUs HMAC/SHA1 and HMAC/SHA256 (and others) will still be done
in software.
Move symmetric cryptography (currently only AES-CBC 128/192/256) to
padlock_cipher.c file. Move HMAC cryptography to padlock_hash.c file.

This is possible for example in situation when session is used in
authentication context, then freed and then used in encryption context
and freed - in encryption context ses_ictx and ses_octx are not touched
at newsession time, but padlock_freesession could still try to free them
when they are not NULL.

- Add support for the CRD_F_KEY_EXPLICIT flag, for both encryption and
