[PATCH v2 0/3] Add Zhaoxin hardware engine driver support for SHA

From: Tony W Wang-oc

Zhaoxin CPUs have implemented the SHA(Secure Hash Algorithm) as its CPU
instructions, including SHA1, SHA256, SHA384 and SHA512, which conform
to the Secure Hash Algorithms specified by FIPS 180-3.

With the help of implementation of SHA in hardware instead of software,
can develop applications with higher performance, more security and more
flexibility.

Below table gives a summary of test using the driver tcrypt with different
crypt algorithm drivers on Zhaoxin KH-40000 platform:

*: The length of each data block to be processed by one complete SHA
sequence, namely one INIT, multi UPDATEs and one FINAL.
**: Crypt algorithm driver used by tcrypt, "zhaoxin" represents zhaoxin-sha
while "generic" represents the generic software SHA driver.
***: The speed of each crypt algorithm driver processing different length
of data blocks, unit is Mb/s.

The ratio in the table implies the performance of SHA implemented by
zhaoxin-sha driver is much higher than the ones implemented by the generic
software driver of sha1/sha256/sha384/sha512.

In order to support Zhaoxin-sha driver, make padlock-sha driver matches
the CENTAUR CPUs with Family == 6 and add two Zhaoxin Hash Engine
cpufeatures.
