[PATCH v7 05/15] crypto: iaa - Enable async mode and make it the default.

[Kanchana P Sridhar <kanchana.p.sridhar@intel.com>]

This patch enables the 'async' sync_mode in the driver. Further, it sets
the default sync_mode to 'async', which makes it easier for IAA hardware
acceleration in the iaa_crypto driver to be loaded by default in the most
efficient/recommended 'async' mode for parallel
compressions/decompressions, namely, asynchronous submission of
descriptors, followed by polling for job completions with or without
request chaining. Earlier, the "sync" mode used to be the default.

This way, anyone who wants to use IAA for zswap/zram can do so after
building the kernel, and without having to go through these steps to use
async mode:

  1) disable all the IAA device/wq bindings that happen at boot time
  2) rmmod iaa_crypto
  3) modprobe iaa_crypto
  4) echo async > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode
  5) re-run initialization of the IAA devices and wqs
