I will move them to drivers/misc.

Add Intel FPGA crypto service (FCS) driver to support new crypto services
on Intel SoCFPGA platforms.
The crypto services include security certificate, image boot validation,
security key cancellation, get provision data, random number generation,
advance encrtption standard (AES) encryption and decryption services.
To perform supporting crypto features on Intel SoCFPGA platforms, Linux
user-space application interacts with FPGA crypto service (FCS) driver via
structures defined in include/uapi/linux/intel_fcs-ioctl.h.
The application allocates spaces for IOCTL structure to hold the contents
or points to the data that FCS driver needs, uses IOCTL calls to passes
data to kernel FCS driver for processing at low level firmware and get
processed data or status back form the low level firmware via FCS driver.
The user-space application named as fcs_client is at
https://github.com/altera-opensource/fcs_apps/tree/fcs_client.

Nack. This driver has nothing to do with the Crypto API.
