I thought that crypto_tfm::__crt_ctx is guaranteed to be 16-byte aligned,
and that the x86 AES code relies on that property.

But now I see that actually the x86 AES code manually aligns the context.
See aes_ctx() in arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel_glue.c.

Did you consider doing the same for polyval?

If you do prefer this way, it would be helpful to leave a comment for
schoolbook1_iteration that mentions that the unaligned access support of
vpclmulqdq is being relied on, i.e. pclmulqdq wouldn't work.
