One bummer is that we have the platform tweak offsets to worry about.
As far as I know, those are opaque to software and practically prevent
us from replicating the MKTME hardware's encryption/decryption in software.

Unless we can get around that, I think it rules out being a drop-in
replacement for any software-driven encryption.
