It saves host CPU cycles so it's a good thing to do. The bug #519154 doesn't affect most people and only for 4965. #556990 doesn't look like swcrypto related, need to do more investigation. So I don't think we should use swcrypto=1 by default in upstream. Users are free to do so in their /etc/modprobe.d though.
