I assumed it would be:
    
    1. patch crypto/master (for 7.2)
    2. merge crypto/master into cryptodev/master
    3. patch cryptodev/master to add an allowlist entry (for the
       algorithm name, not the mask which was already done by (1))

But Herbert maintains this code, so if he wants them to merge in another
order you'll need to do that.

I'm not sure why my email above is linked to.  That email was about the
implementation, not where/when the patches should go.
