Hello, It's been several releases since we added a new driver to support the CESA IP (the new driver was introduced in 4.2). It seems most major bugs have been discovered and fixed and now is probably a good time to kill the old driver and force remaining users to switch to the new one. This series first add a platform_device_id table to the marvell CESA driver so that it can work on non-DT platforms. Then we patch all defconfigs to select the new driver instead of the old. And finally we remove the old driver. These patches have to be applied in this order to make things bisectable, so, if this series is accepted it will have to go through a single tree (either ARM or crypto).
Thanks for keeping this on your radar. As I was the one who originally requested this transitioning time, Acked-by: Jason Cooper <redacted> For the series. thx, Jason.
