Baptiste Jonglez 098afa1e1b openssl: Enable assembler optimizations for aarch64
OpenSSL is built with the generic linux settings for most targets,
including aarch64.  These generic settings are designed for 32-bit CPU and
provide no assembler optmization: this is widely suboptimal for aarch64.

This patch simply switches to the aarch64 settings that are already
available in OpenSSL.

Here is the output of "openssl speed" before the optimization, with
"(...)" representing build flags that didn't change:

    OpenSSL 1.0.2l  25 May 2017
    options:bn(64,32) rc4(ptr,char) des(idx,cisc,2,int) aes(partial) blowfish(ptr)
    compiler: aarch64-openwrt-linux-musl-gcc  (...)

And after this patch, OpenSSL uses 64 bit mode and assembler optimizations:

    OpenSSL 1.0.2l  25 May 2017
    options:bn(64,64) rc4(ptr,char) des(idx,cisc,2,int) aes(partial) blowfish(ptr)
    compiler: aarch64-openwrt-linux-musl-gcc  (...)  -DSHA1_ASM -DSHA256_ASM -DSHA512_ASM

Here are some benchmarks on a pine64+ running latest LEDE master r5142-20d363aed3:

For some reason AES and blowfish do not benefit, but SHA performance
improves between 1.7x and 15x.  SHA256 clearly benefits the most from the
optimization (4.5x on small blocks, 15x on large blocks!).

When using EVP (with "openssl speed -evp <algo>"):

Blowfish does not seem to have assembler optimization at all, and SHA
still benefits (between 1.6x and 14.5x) but is generally slower than in
non-EVP mode.

However, AES performance is improved between 5.5x and 27.5x, which is
really impressive!  For aes-128-cbc on large blocks, a core i7-6600U
@2.60GHz is only twice as fast...
