This is intentional. For the purposes we talked about we should be requesting cryptd(<driver name>), as otherwise you may end up with someone else's AES algorithm as the base. > 2.

The priority shouldn't be an issue in our case since the AES-NI algorithm should register itself as an ablkcipher with an even higher priority.
