[??/many] acrypto benchmarks vs cryptoloop vs dm_crypt

[Evgeniy Polyakov]

Benchmark: Bonnie++ 1.03.
Machine: 2-way Xeon (1+1HT), 1Gb ram.
Ext2 filesystem over file(mapped using loop(cryptoloop, dm_crypt) 
or bd_fd filter for bd).

bd+acrypto works exactly as cryptoloop (attitude of the performance 
acrypto vs. cryptoloop is always the same as CPU usage attitude, 
BUT!, I can not setup bd+acrypto to use the same amount of CPU as loopdev!,
so in absolute numbers, cryptoloop is faster).
dm_crypt is slower.
