For "zinc: add simd helper", I think it should be in include/linux,
and include/linux/simd.h should (immediately or maybe in the future)
include <asm/simd.h> to pick up arch-specific stuff.  And the patch
should get sent to linux-arch@...r.kernel.org.

In your blake2s_arch() implementation, you're not passing in a
simd_context_t.  Is that still a work in progress?  I thought the plan
was to pass it in rather than doing the check in the _arch()
functions.
