Added support for executing multiple, independent or not, requests for crypto engine. This is based on a callback, can_enqueue_more, which asks the driver if the hardware has free space, to enqueue a new request. If hardware supports batch requests, crypto-engine can handle this use-case through do_batch_requests callback.
Since, these new features, cannot be supported by all hardware, the crypto-engine framework is backward compatible: - by using the crypto_engine_alloc_init function, to initialize crypto-engine, the new callbacks are NULL and the engine will work as before these changes; - to support only multiple requests, in parallel, the can_enqueue_more callback must be implemented in driver. On crypto_pump_requests, if can_enqueue_more callback returns true, a new request is send to hardware, until there is no space and the callback returns false. - to support batch requests, do_batch_requests callback must be implemented in driver, to execute a batch of requests. The link between the requests, is expected to be done in driver, in do_one_request().

--- Changes since V1: - changed the name of can_enqueue_hardware callback to can_enqueue_more, and the argument of this callback to crypto_engine structure (for cases when more than ore crypto-engine is used). - added a new patch with support for batch requests.
Changes since V0 (RFC): - removed max_no_req and no_req, as the number of request that can be processed in parallel; - added a new callback, can_enqueue_more, to check whether the hardware can process a new request.
