x86 optimized crypto modules built as modules rather than built-in to the kernel end up as .ko files in the filesystem, e.g., in /usr/lib/modules. If the filesystem itself is a module, these might not be available when the crypto API is initialized, resulting in the generic implementation being used (e.g., sha512_transform rather than sha512_transform_avx2). In one test case, CPU utilization in the sha512 function dropped from 15.34% to 7.18% after forcing loading of the optimized module. Add module aliases for this x86 optimized crypto module based on CPU feature bits so udev gets a chance to load them later in the boot process when the filesystems are all running.
