The prototype of this function ensures a u32* type for the key, and all uses of it are using state->key, which is a u32 array. When userspace slices up a memory region into an array of states, it does so using a state size that also ensures the alignment. So it's safe to assume that the key is always 32-bit aligned. That in turn means it's possible to use movaps instead of movups for loading the key. Signed-off-by: Jason A.
