crypto: aesni-intel - Add AES-NI accelerated CTR mode
To take advantage of the hardware pipeline implementation of AES-NI instructions. CTR mode cryption is implemented in ASM to schedule multiple AES-NI instructions one after another. This way, some latency of AES-NI instruction can be eliminated. Performance testing based on dm-crypt should 50% reduction of ecryption/decryption time.
