[PATCH 0/4] crypto: sun8i-ce: add Allwinner H616 support

This series adds support for the crypto engine in the Allwinner H616
SoC. The IP and its capabilities are very similar to the H6, with the
major difference of the DMA engine supporting 34 bit wide addresses.
This is achieved by just shifting every address by 2 bits in the DMA
descriptors; Allwinner calls this "word addresses".
Patch 2/4 adds support for this by wrapping every address access in a
function that does the shift as needed. Patch 1/4 adds the new
compatible string to the binding, patch 3/4 adds that string to the
driver and enables the address shift for it. The final patch 4/4 adds
the DT node to the SoC .dtsi. Since this is an internal peripheral,
it's always enabled.

Corentin's cryptotest passed for me, though I haven't checked how fast
it is and if it really brings an advantage performance-wise, but maybe
people find it useful to offload that from the CPU cores.
One immediate advantage is the availability of the TRNG device, which
helps to feed the kernel's entropy pool much faster - typically before
we reach userland. Without the driver this sometimes takes minutes, and
delays workloads that rely on the entropy pool.

Please have a look and comment!

Cheers,
Andre
