This series makes the "aes-fixed-time" and "aes-arm" implementations of AES more resistant to cache-timing attacks. Note that even after these changes, the implementations still aren't necessarily guaranteed to be constant-time; see https://cr.yp.to/antiforgery/cachetiming-20050414.pdf for a discussion of the many difficulties involved in writing truly constant-time AES software. But it's valuable to make such attacks more difficult.
