mvebu_v5 already enables a crypto driver, but it's the old one. So
there's a decision to be taken here whether we move all the platforms
to use the new driver or not.

The new driver has been tested on the Armada family, and I believe also
on Kirkwood. However I'm pretty sure it hasn't been tested on Dove and
Orion.

Dove is ARMv7 and enabled in mvebu_v7_defconfig, but since neither the
old nor the new driver were enabled in mvebu_v7_defconfig, we are not
going to disrupt any existing user here by adding the new driver in the
defconfig.

Changing mvebu_v5_defconfig, multi_v5_defconfig, orion5x_defconfig and
dove_defconfig however implies moving those defconfigs away from the
old driver, and select the new one instead. A more serious change, IMO.

Best regards,

Thomas
