Hello

The sun8i-ce hardware can work on multiple requests in one batch.
For this it use a task descriptor, and chain them.
For the moment, the driver does not use this mechanism and do requests
one at a time and issue an irq for each.

Using the chaning will permit to issue less interrupts, and increase
thoughput.

But the crypto/engine can enqueue lots of requests but can ran them only
one by one.

This serie introduce a way to batch requests in crypto/engine by
- setting a batch limit (1 by default)
- refactor the prepare/unprepare code to permit to have x requests
  prepared/unprepared at the same time.

For testing the serie, the selftest are not enough, since it issue
request one at a time.
I have used LUKS for testing it.

Please give me what you think about this serie, specially maintainers
which have hardware with the same kind of capability.

Regards
