Bug Description

---Problem Description---
There are actually some more NX 842 patches that should be in the 4.3 kernel. They're currently all in Herbert's tree:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/herbert/cryptodev-2.6.git

In the usual descending order:

03952d9 crypto: nx - make platform drivers directly register with crypto
174d66d crypto: nx - rename nx-842-crypto.c to nx-842.c
d31581a crypto: nx - merge nx-compress and nx-compress-crypto
20fc311 crypto: nx - use common code for both NX decompress success cases
ee781b7 crypto: nx - don't register pSeries driver if ENODEV
7f6e3aa crypto: nx - move kzalloc() out of spinlock
90fd73f crypto: nx - remove pSeries NX 'status' field
039af96 crypto: nx - remove __init/__exit from VIO functions
23ad69a crypto: nx/842 - Fix context corruption
2b93f7e crypto: nx - reduce chattiness of platform drivers
7abd75b crypto: nx - do not emit extra output if status is disabled
ec13bcb crypto: nx - rename nx842_{init, exit} to nx842_pseries_{init, exit}
fa9a9a0 crypto: nx - nx842_OF_upd_status should return ENODEV if device is not 'okay'

---uname output---

Machine Type = power 8

I am working on back-port these patches and will be providing them early next week. These patches fix several bugs in nx842 code.

Thanks, So I will not provide back-ports for all 13 patches. Please let me know if you expect patches from me.
