Implement a NEON fallback for systems that do support NEON but have no support for the optional 64x64->128 polynomial multiplication instruction that is part of the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions. It is based on the paper "Fast Software Polynomial Multiplication on ARM Processors Using the NEON Engine" by Danilo Camara, Conrado Gouvea, Julio Lopez and Ricardo Dahab (https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01506572), but has been reworked extensively for the AArch64 ISA. On a low-end core such as the Cortex-A53 found in the Raspberry Pi3, the NEON based implementation is 4x faster than the table based one, and is time invariant as well, making it less vulnerable to timing attacks. When combined with the bit-sliced NEON implementation of AES-CTR, the AES-GCM performance increases by 2x (from 58 to 29 cycles per byte).

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
