Can you call this kconfig option just CRYPTO_CHACHA_RISCV64? I.e. drop the
"20". The ChaCha family of ciphers includes more than just ChaCha20.
The other architectures do use "CHACHA20" in their equivalent option, even when
they implement XChaCha12 too. But that's for historical reasons -- we didn't
want to break anything by renaming the kconfig options. For a new option we
should use the more general name from the beginning, even if initially only
ChaCha20 is implemented (which is fine).

riscv64_chacha_crypt(), please. chacha20_encrypt() is dangerously close to
being the same name as chacha20_crypt() which already exists in crypto/chacha.h.

Just to double check: your intent is to simply require VLEN >= 128 for all the
RISC-V vector crypto code, even when some might work with a shorter VLEN? I
don't see anything in chacha-riscv64-zvkb.pl that assumes VLEN >= 128, for
example. I think it would even work with VLEN == 32.
I think requiring VLEN >= 128 anyway makes sense so that we don't have to worry
about validating the code with shorter VLEN. And "application processors" are
supposed to have VLEN >= 128. But I just wanted to make sure this is what you
intended too.
