Reviewing the two arm64 aead drivers, aes-ce-ccm-glue.c solves that by
including this in the do/while loop in ccm_calculate_auth_mac():
                n = min_t(u32, n, SZ_4K); /* yield NEON at least every 4k */

That was added by 36a916af641 ("crypto: arm64/aes-ccm - yield NEON
when processing auth-only data") in 2021, also relying on
41691c44606b ("crypto: arm64/aes-ccm - reduce NEON begin/end calls
for common case").

ghash-ce-glue.c seems to be missing that in its similar function named
gcm_calculate_auth_mac().
