Even though the sun4i driver implements asynchronous versions of ecb(aes) and cbc(aes), the fallbacks it allocates are required to be synchronous. Given that SIMD based software implementations are usually asynchronous as well, even though they rarely complete asynchronously (this typically only happens in cases where the request was made from softirq context, while SIMD was already in use in the task context that it interrupted), these implementations are disregarded, and either the generic C version or another table based version implemented in assembler is selected instead. Since falling back to synchronous AES is not only a performance issue, but potentially a security issue as well (due to the fact that table based AES is not time invariant), let's fix this, by allocating an ordinary skcipher as the fallback, and invoke it with the completion routine that was given to the outer request.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
