I'm not a crypto guy by any stretch of the imagination, but Ard is out
at the moment and this looks like an important fix so I had a crack at
reviewing it.

With this change, we no longer initialise dctx->buflen to 0 as part of the
initialisation. Looking at neon_poly1305_do_update(), I'm a bit worried
that we could land in the 'if (likely(len >= POLY1305_BLOCK_SIZE))' block,
end up with len == 0 and fail to set dctx->buflen. Is this a problem, or is
my ignorance showing?
