The GHASH code uses the generic AES key expansion routines, and calls directly into the scalar table based AES cipher for arm64 from the fallback path, and since this implementation is known to be non-time invariant, doing so from a time invariant SIMD cipher is a bit nasty. So let's switch to the AES library - this makes the code more robust, and drops the dependency on the generic AES cipher, allowing us to omit it entirely in the future.

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.
