Thanks for running some benchmarks!

Looking at your results for rk3566 for example, SHA-256 on 4096-byte
blocks is 115 cycles/operation for sha256-lib (i.e. ARMv8 CE) or 3027
cycles/operation for rk2-sha256.  So the Rockchip driver is 26 times
slower than simply using the existing well-tested CPU-based code.

Don't you love "accelerators" that make things 26 times slower?

I guess we'll get the usual argument that this driver is really just for
"testing" or whatever.
