db014428b1 mvebu: armada-37xx: remove ethernet alias patch
This patch has been added with initial support for ESPRESSObin board and
mistakenly it affects all boards with this SoC. Drop this patch since
the aliases are now in upstream dts for ESPRESSObin. If any boards are
relying on this, please add the respective alias to that board dts.

2e1ebe96c6 mvebu: armada 370: dts: fix the crypto engine
The crypto engine in Armada 370 SoCs is currently broken. It can be
checked installing the required packages for testing openssl with hw
acceleration:

  opkg install openssl-util
  opkg install kmod-cryptodev
  opkg install libopenssl-devcrypto

After configuring /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf to let openssl use the crypto
engine for digest operations, and performing some checksums..

  md5sum 10M-file.bin
  openssl md5 10M-file.bin

...we can see they don't match.

There might be an alignment or size constraint issue caused by the
idle-sram area.

Use the whole crypto sram and disable the idle-sram area to fix it. Also
disable the idle support by adding the broken-idle property to prevent
accessing the disabled idle-sram.

We don't care about disabling the idle support since it is already broken
in Armada 370 causing a huge performance loss because it disables
permanently the L2 cache. This was reported in the Openwrt forum and
elsewhere by Debian users with different board models.
