Johannes Goetzfried 107778b592 crypto: twofish - add x86_64/avx assembler implementation
This patch adds a x86_64/avx assembler implementation of the Twofish block
cipher. The implementation processes eight blocks in parallel (two 4 block
chunk AVX operations). The table-lookups are done in general-purpose registers.
For small blocksizes the 3way-parallel functions from the twofish-x86_64-3way
module are called. A good performance increase is provided for blocksizes
greater or equal to 128B.

Patch has been tested with tcrypt and automated filesystem tests.

Tcrypt benchmark results:

Intel Core i5-2500 CPU (fam:6, model:42, step:7)
