This makes the object files aesni-intel_asm.o and aes-intel_glue.o each be built
into two separate kernel modules.  My understanding is that duplicating code
like that is generally frowned upon.  These files should either be built into a
separate module, which both aesni-intel.ko and aeskl-intel.ko would depend on,
or aeskl-intel.ko should depend on aesni-intel.ko.

This file gets very long after all the modes are added (> 1100 lines).  Is there
really no feasible way to share code between this and aesni-intel_asm.S, similar
to how the arm64 AES implementations work?  Surely most of the logic is the
same, and it's just the actual AES instructions that differ?

'depends on DM_CRYPT' doesn't really make sense here, since there is no actual
dependency on dm-crypt in the code.
