Series arm64: crypto: prepare for new kernel mode NEON policy | expand

Commit Message

Ard Biesheuvel June 10, 2017, 4:22 p.m. UTC 
In preparation of modifying the logic that decides whether kernel mode
NEON is allowable, which is required for SVE support, introduce an
implementation of may_use_simd() that reflects the current reality, i.e.,
that SIMD is allowed in any context.
