The NEON/Crypto Extensions based AES implementation for 32-bit ARM can be built in a kernel that targets ARMv6 CPUs and higher, even though the actual code will not be able to run on that generation, but it allows for a portable image to be generated that can will use the special instructions only when they are available. Since those instructions are part of a FPU profile rather than a CPU profile, we don't override the architecture in the assembler code, and most of the scalar code is simple enough to be ARMv6 compatible. However, that changes with commitc61b1607ed, which introduces calls to the movw/movt instructions, which are v7+ only. So override the architecture in the .S file to armv8-a, which matches the architecture specification in the crypto-neon-fp-armv8 FPU specificier that we already using. Note that using armv7-a here may trigger an issue with the upcoming Clang 10 release, which no longer permits .arch/.fpu combinations it views as incompatible.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
