Hello

There is no dependency, my only problem is that only one of 2 instance need to register crypto algos.
The only perfect way is to have a list_head of devices, but I found this a bit complex/overkill.
I understand my current way is not ideal, I will probably try this other way. In that case, yes problably the 2 node need to have the same compatible (and only a future rockchip,rsa will permit to distinct where RSA is).
