Herbert, can we expect ASYNC implementations of gcm(aes) to maintain
ordering of completions wrt requests? For AESNI, the use of
cryptd_aead_queued() makes sure of that, but I don't know if other
implementations under drivers/crypto would have the same
guarantee.
Absolutely as otherwise IPsec would be seriously broken (it's even
worse than plain TCP because of the replay windows).

Cheers,
