Sorry for latency, and except a bit more slow phase also during
July because I'm most of this month on Holiday, except taking care
6.11 release.

This really is a bug in the HMAC code not in the IBM driver as 
it should not break because of a new feature, i.e. this is only
correct conclusions, give the "no regressions" rule.

Since HMAC is by default only for x86_64 and it does not break
defconfig's, we should take time and fix the actual issue.
