Jussi Kivilinna 847cb7ef56 crypto: serpent-sse2 - change transpose_4x4 to only use integer instructions
Matrix transpose macro in serpent-sse2 uses mix of SSE2 integer and SSE floating
point instructions, which might cause performance penality on some CPUs.

This patch replaces transpose_4x4 macro with version that uses only SSE2
integer instructions.

Jussi Kivilinna 251496dbfc crypto: serpent - add 4-way parallel i586/SSE2 assembler implementation
Patch adds i586/SSE2 assembler implementation of serpent cipher. Assembler
functions crypt data in four block chunks.

Patch has been tested with tcrypt and automated filesystem tests.

Tcrypt benchmarks results (serpent-sse2/serpent_generic speed ratios):
