Dear Maintainer,

Please enable CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON, at least for the LPAE version.
This will automatically enable code paths for the XOR and RAID drivers,
and permit the various accelerated crypto drivers in arch/arm/crypto
to be enabled as well, including the ones that use special crypto
instructions, which are typically 5x - 20x faster (depending on the
particular algorithm)
