- Extend ccr_gcm_soft() to handle requests with a non-empty payload.
While here, switch to allocating the GMAC context instead of placing
it on the stack since it is over 1KB in size.
- Allow ccr_gcm() to return a special error value (EMSGSIZE) which
triggers a fallback to ccr_gcm_soft(). Move the existing empty
payload check into ccr_gcm() and change a few other cases
(e.g. large AAD) to fallback to software via EMSGSIZE as well.
- Add a new 'sw_fallback' stat to count the number of requests
processed via the software fallback.
