FWIW:
Acked-by: Heiko Carstens <hca@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

However, I just had a look at the s390 implementation and just saw that the
inline assembly constraints for xor_xc_2() are incorrect. "bytes", "p1",
and "p2" are input operands, while all three of them are modified within
the inline assembly. Given that the function consists only of this inline
assembly I doubt that this causes any harm, however I still want to fix
this now; but your patch should apply fine with or without this fixed.
