This is a resubmission of a patchset I set a while ago, and that was corrupted 
by my email client.

The following patchset adds async hashing (sha1 and hmac-sha1) to the mv_cesa 
crypto driver. This driver utilizes the Marvell CESA crypto accelerator that 
exists in some Marvell CPU's (Orion and Kirkwood). The existing driver has AES 
crypto support.

Compared to SW hashing on a 1.2GHz Kirkwood, the HW acceleration is about 20% 
faster, but more importantly, at reduced CPU utilization.

The patchset is divided as follows:
- patches 1-4 are bug/warning fixes to the existing driver
- patches 5-9 refactor the existing driver with no functional change to 
accommodate the added functionality
- patch 10 adds the sha1 and hmac-sha1 support.

The driver requires the sha1 and hmac sw drivers in order to handle some corner 
cases (i.e. it never falls back on a complete request but sometimes it hashes 
the last 64 bytes in sw)
