A bug I noticed (which is also present in Jerry's patchset) is that some of the
code of the aes-block-riscv64 module is located in aes-riscv64-zvkned.S, which
isn't built into that module but rather into aes-riscv64.  This causes a build
error when both CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_RISCV64 and CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_BLOCK_RISCV64
are set to 'm':

    ERROR: modpost: "aes_cbc_decrypt_zvkned" [arch/riscv/crypto/aes-block-riscv64.ko] undefined!
    ERROR: modpost: "aes_ecb_decrypt_zvkned" [arch/riscv/crypto/aes-block-riscv64.ko] undefined!
    ERROR: modpost: "aes_cbc_encrypt_zvkned" [arch/riscv/crypto/aes-block-riscv64.ko] undefined!
    ERROR: modpost: "aes_ecb_encrypt_zvkned" [arch/riscv/crypto/aes-block-riscv64.ko] undefined!

To fix this, I think we should just merge the two modules and kconfig options
together so that there is one module that provides both the AES modes and the
AES single-block cipher.  That's how x86's aesni-intel works, for example.
