VMX cryptographic acceleration instructions were added to the POWER8
CPU. These instructions implement portions of AES and GHASH in hardware.

This patch set adds a new module for PPC64, vmx, that support
cryptographic routines such as AES and GHASH on hardware. In order to
access VMX instructions on Power 8 CPU this module uses scripts
implemented in colaboration with OpenSSL.

Changelog[v2]
1. Patch style fixes 
2. Redo unecessary conditions on drivers/crypto/Kconfig
and vmx/Makefile in previous [Patch 7/7]
All applied.  Thanks!
