ARM: multi_v7_defconfig: Enable s5p-secss driver
The Exynos SoC provides a Security SubSystem block for accelerating some cryptographic operations. Enable the driver for it - s5p-secss to utilize the hardware acceleration. Currently the s5p-secss driver supports AES in CBC and ECB modes. However its usefulness could be doubted. Excerpt of tests on Odroid XU3 (Exynos5422), for 256 bit key, encryption, performance CPU freq governor: algorithm | block size [b] | average speed [MB/s] | cbc-aes-s5p | 16 | 11.5 | cbc-aes-s5p | 64 | 25.4 | cbc-aes-s5p | 256 | 41.0 | cbc-aes-s5p | 1024 | 47.4 | cbc-aes-s5p | 8192 | 49.0 | cbc(aes-generic) | 16 | 0.4 | cbc(aes-generic) | 64 | 1.8 | cbc(aes-generic) | 256 | 6.6 | cbc(aes-generic) | 1024 | 25.2 | cbc(aes-generic) | 8192 | 83.1 | Anyway enable the driver so it will get some testing coverage by community.
