Patch adds x86_64/SSE2 assembler implementation of serpent cipher. Assembler functions crypt data in eigth block chunks (two 4 block chunk SSE2 operations in parallel to improve performance on out-of-order CPUs). Glue code is based on one from AES-NI implementation, so requests from irq context are redirected to cryptd. v2: - add missing include of linux/module.h (appearently crypto.h used to include module.h, which changed for 3.2 by commit 7c926402) Patch has been tested with tcrypt and automated filesystem tests.
