Add support for 420xx devices by including a new device driver that
supports such devices, updates to the firmware loader and capabilities.
Compared to 4xxx devices, 420xx devices have more acceleration engines
(16 service engines and 1 admin) and support the wireless cipher
algorithms ZUC and Snow 3G.

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit fcf60f4bcf54952c ("crypto:
qat - add support for 420xx devices") in crypto/master

These dependencies suggest that the QAT_420XX device can be present and
used on any little-endian system that supports PCIe (arm64, MIPS,
PowerPC, RISC-V, ...).
However, [1] says QAT is only present on intel Atom® C5000, P5300, and
P5700 processors, implying the dependency should rather be
depends on PCI && (X86_64 || COMPILE_TEST)
Which one is correct?
