Thanks for your suggestions. I will incorporate them and post next
revision. 

The user space request buffer length should not be more than
req_max_processed_len (available through sysfs). Otherwise NX will
return the request with RMA_Reject. Whereasas min_compress_len and
min_decompress_len are recommended values. 

We can add this patch and the last one (crypto/nx: Add sysfs interface
to export NX capabilities) before the actual enablement ("crypto/nx:
Register and unregisterVAS interface on PowerVM""

Thanks
