We'll want to use these in btrfs too.

Do you suspect that btrfs will also want to perform these operations
asynchronously? I am preparing an updated release of the raid6
offload patch kit, but the previous WIP release can be browsed at:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/djbw/async_tx.git;a=shortlog;h=raid6
The routines are housed in crypto/async_tx/async_pq.c and
crypto/async_tx/async_raid6_recov.c.
I also wonder if the raid6 algos are a better fit under crypto/ alongside xor?
I am also sitting on a set of synchronous (CPU) acceleration patches for
RAID-6 recovery, just waiting for the APIs to stabilize.
