Sadly they do, it's these:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20210510213634.600866-1-linus.walleij@linaro.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20210510213634.600866-2-linus.walleij@linaro.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20210510213634.600866-3-linus.walleij@linaro.org/

I guess we could turn it around: I see if I can apply these two
on top of the crypto tree and resend then we hope there is no
collision in the ARM SoC tree instead.

I need to respin the series anyway so shall we try this?
