Well, in the case where only xts and aes are built into the kernel I think we have to use that instead of going to request_module as otherwise we cannot avoid the dead-lock that is the subject of this discussion. If you want accelerated xts(aes) to work while building generic xts and aes into the kernel then you should also build the accelerated xts(aes) into the kernel (or load the manually once modules can be loaded).
