In fact, padlock-aes shouldn't have been aes-all in the first
place so I'm going to add tihs patch too.

    crypto: padlock - Revert aes-all alias to aes
    
    Since the padlock-aes driver doesn't require a fallback (it's
    only padlock-sha that does), it should use the aes alias rather
    than aes-all so that ones that do need a fallback can use it.
