This patch introduces a new in-kernel-crypto blockcipher called 'paes' which implements AES with protected keys. The paes blockcipher can be used similar to the aes blockcipher but uses secure key material to derive the working protected key and so offers an encryption implementation where never a clear key value is exposed in memory. The paes module is only available for the s390 platform providing a minimal hardware support of CPACF enabled with at least MSA level 3. Upon module initialization these requirements are checked. Includes additional contribution from Harald Freudenberger. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
