The number of patches is something debatable!
Your first patches were already in my RFC!
This patch adds support for independent requests by adding a check for
hardware availability. Removing current request (cur_req) means we need
to add something else to break from the loop we have in pump_requests().
I didn't see how I could split it in several commits, but I don't see
this as a big deal.
We can split it any way we/Herbert agree on.

We need to check if we can enqueue a new request before dequeuing the
request from crypto-engine's queue.

> And the callback need to have the crypto engine itself as parameter, in case the driver own more than one crypto engine.
I can add crypto-engine as argument if you consider it useful.

If you refer to linked requests, this is something specific for your
case/driver. I'm not handling this case, here.
But, for sure, is not correct to do do_one_request, only on the first
request. This breaks the current API and doesn't scale to supporting
multiple independent requests.
