It does sound like we should just disable that driver entirely until
it is fixed.
Or at least the configuration that can cause problems, if there is
some particular sub-case. Although from a cursory glance and the
noises made in this thread, it looks like it's all of the 'qat_aeads'
cases (since that uses qat_alg_aead_enc() which can return -EAGAIN),
which effectively means that all of the QAT stuff.
So presumably CRYPTO_DEV_QAT should just be marked as
depends on BROKEN || COMPILE_TEST
or similar?
