I do seem to be carrying some patches for some time for CESA:

crypto: marvell: rearrange handling for sw padded hashes
crypto: marvell: rearrange handling for hw finished hashes
crypto: marvell: rearrange last request handling
crypto: marvell: avoid adding final operation within loop
crypto: marvell: ensure iter.base.op_len is the full op length
crypto: marvell: use presence of scatterlist to determine data load
crypto: marvell: move mv_cesa_dma_add_frag() calls
crypto: marvell: always ensure mid-fragments after first-fragment
crypto: marvell: factor out adding an operation and launching it
crypto: marvell: factor out first fragment decisions to helper
crypto: marvell: const-ify argument to mv_cesa_get_op_cfg()
crypto: marvell: ensure template operation is initialised
crypto: marvell: fix the bit length endianness
crypto: marvell: add flag to determine algorithm endianness
crypto: marvell: keep creq->state in CPU endian format at all times
crypto: marvell: easier way to get the transform

and the last time I seem to have any comments on them was back in
October last year.  I don't remember what status these are, and as I've
been concentrating on other areas.  I'll try to remember to send them
out after rc1.
