The AES-NI driver implements XTS via the glue helper, which consumes a struct with sets of function pointers which are invoked on chunks of input data of the appropriate size, as annotated in the struct. Let's get rid of this indirection, so that we can perform direct calls to the assembler helpers. Instead, let's adopt the arm64 strategy, i.e., provide a helper which can consume inputs of any size, provided that the penultimate, full block is passed via the last call if ciphertext stealing needs to be applied. This also allows us to enable the XTS mode for i386.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
