Herbert,

Could you hold off on the SHA-3 patches for a little while? With the
performance fix for the generic code, it may no longer be worthwhile
to have a special arm64 implementation as well. I will respin a series
containing everything I think is needed.

The SM3 patch is independent, and is good to go IMO (with Steve's Tested-by)

Thanks,
Ard.
