The point for this being RFC is backwards-compatibility: earlier
hardware (Orion) ships a (slightly) different DMA engine (IDMA) along
with the same crypto engine, so in fact mv_cesa.c is in use on these
platforms, too. But since I don't possess hardware of this kind, I am
not able to make this code IDMA-compatible. Also, due to the quite
massive reorganisation of code flow, I don't really see how to make TDMA
support optional in mv_cesa.c.
So does this break existing functionality or not?
