I'm looking forward to having direct support for these AES modes, especially the
modes needed for storage encryption: XTS, and CBC or CTS!  None of these AES
modes is actually implemented in this patch yet, though, so they can't be
claimed in the kconfig help text yet.  This patch is just a starting point, as
it just adds support for the bare AES block cipher ("aes" in the crypto API).

(BTW, I'm much more interested in, say, AES-XTS support than SM4 support, which
this patchset does include.  SM4 is a "national pride cipher" which is somewhat
of a niche thing.  I suppose there are already people pushing it for RISC-V
though, as they are everywhere else, so that's to be expected...)

Can it just use 'struct crypto_aes_ctx'?  That's what most of the other AES
implementations use.

It's a bit annoying that RISC-V doesn't support AES-192, though also not
particularly surprising, seeing as AES-192 is almost never used.  (Intel's Key
Locker, for example, is another recent CPU feature that doesn't support
AES-192.)  IMO the issue here is really with the kernel crypto API -- it should
treat AES-128, AES-192, and AES-256 as separate algorithms so that
implementations aren't forced to support all three key sizes...

Anyway, for now, as you noticed you do need a fallback to handle AES-192 to make
the kernel crypto API happy.

But, the fallback doesn't have to be a 'crypto_cipher' as you've implemented.
You could just use the AES library.  See what arch/arm64/crypto/aes-ce-glue.c
does, for example.  Have you considered that?  It would be simpler than the
crypto_cipher based approach.

Always use 'const' for the tfm_ctx in encrypt and decrypt functions, please, as
it must never be modified there.

Maybe "RISC-V accelerated"?
