Revert "net: macsec: preserve ingress frame ordering"
This reverts commit ab046a5d. It was trying to work around an issue at the crypto layer by excluding ASYNC implementations of gcm(aes), because a bug in the AESNI version caused reordering when some requests bypassed the cryptd queue while older requests were still pending on the queue. This was fixed by commit 38b2f68b ("crypto: aesni - Fix cryptd reordering problem on gcm"), which pre-dates ab046a5d. Herbert Xu confirmed that all ASYNC implementations are expected to maintain the ordering of completions wrt requests, so we can use them in MACsec. On my test machine, this restores the performance of a single netperf instance, from 1.4Gbps to 4.4Gbps.
