It would be helpful if the registers were listed in order, and if the
CTR-specific ones were marked as being specific to CTR.  This would make it easy
to verify that there are no collisions in register allocation.  I.e.:

[...]
#define xdata7		%xmm7
#define xcounter	%xmm8	// CTR mode only
#define xiv		%xmm8	// XCTR mode only
#define xbyteswap	%xmm9	// CTR mode only
#define xkey0		%xmm10
[...]
#define num_bytes	%r8
#define counter		%r9	// XCTR mode only
#define tmp		%r10
[...]


I'm also not a fan of the naming, with "xcounter" being used by CTR only and
"counter" being used by XCTR only...  I see why you did it, though, as the
existing code uses the "x" prefix to mean "this is an xmm register".  It could
at least use a comment that makes this super clear, though:

// Note: the "x" prefix in these aliases means "this is an xmm register".
// No relation to XCTR where the "X" prefix means "XOR counter".
#define xdata0		%xmm0

As \xctr is either 0 or 1, this can be written as simply '.if \xctr'

Since the 3-operand add instruction (vpaddq) is available here, and in fact is
being used already, it isn't necessary to move 'counter' into all (up to 8) of
the var_xdata registers.  Just move it into the last var_xdata register, or into
a temporary register, and use it as a source operand for all the additions.

This can be written as:

	.if \xctr
	[second part above]
	.else
	[first part above]
	.endif

Likewise here.

And likewise here.  Also, the load of byteswap_const can be moved into the
!\xctr block.
