4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 1411b5218adbcf1d45ddb260db5553c52e8d917c upstream. In the vmx AES init routines we do a printk(KERN_INFO ...) to report the fallback implementation we're using. However with a slow console this can significantly affect the speed of crypto operations. Using 'cryptsetup benchmark' the removal of the printk() leads to a ~5x speedup for aes-cbc decryption. So remove them.
