Sam Leffler 6810ad6f2a Overhaul driver/subsystem api's:
o make all crypto drivers have a device_t; pseudo drivers like the s/w
  crypto driver synthesize one
o change the api between the crypto subsystem and drivers to use kobj;
  cryptodev_if.m defines this api
o use the fact that all crypto drivers now have a device_t to add support
  for specifying which of several potential devices to use when doing
  crypto operations
o add new ioctls that allow user apps to select a specific crypto device
  to use (previous ioctls maintained for compatibility)
o overhaul crypto subsystem code to eliminate lots of cruft and hide
  implementation details from drivers
o bring in numerous fixes from Michale Richardson/hifn; mostly for
  795x parts
o add an optional mechanism for mmap'ing the hifn 795x public key h/w
  to user space for use by openssl (not enabled by default)
o update crypto test tools to use new ioctl's and add cmd line options
  to specify a device to use for tests

These changes will also enable much future work on improving the core
crypto subsystem; including proper load balancing and interposing code
between the core and drivers to dispatch small operations to the s/w
driver as appropriate.

These changes were instigated by the work of Michael Richardson.

This directory tree contains tools used for the maintenance and
testing of FreeBSD.  There is no toplevel Makefile structure since
these tools are not meant to be built as part of the standard system,
though there may be individual Makefiles in some of the subdirs.

Please read the README files in the subdirs for further information.
