I doubt that this approach can work. The cryptd encrypt/decrypt functions
assume to be called from a workqueue worker, they can't be called from
atomic context.
Can't we just use cryptd unconditionally to fix this reordering problem?

Where is CRYPTD_ENCRYPT defined?
This does not even compile when applied to the cryptodev tree.

Same here.

Everything below the local_bh_enable() should not run in atomic context
as the subsequent functions may set the CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP flag.

Same here, the complete function can not run in atomic context.
Also, this can not ensure that the request is finalized.
Subsequent algorithms may run asynchronously too, so this
does not fix the reordering problem completely.
