Why did you choose the priority 100? The software implementations commonly use 
100. crypto/gcm.c uses the prio of the underlying cipher. In case of ARM, 
there seem to be assembler implementations of AES which have the prio of 200 
or 300. So, such software implementation of gcm(aes) would have a higher 
precedence than your hw implementation.

So, if a user would use gcm(aes), isn't it more likely that he gets the 
software implementation?
