[PATCH] crypto: qce - fix priority to be less than ARMv8 CE

From: Eric Biggers
Date: Tue Dec 03 2024 - 13:07:29 EST


From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

As QCE is an order of magnitude slower than the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions
on the CPU, and is also less well tested, give it a lower priority.
Previously the QCE SHA algorithms had higher priority than the ARMv8 CE
equivalents, and the ciphers such as AES-XTS had the same priority which
meant the QCE versions were chosen if they happened to be loaded later.
