If I move the DMA primitives to the driver context,
I can't assure software coherency enforcement in rsa helper.

If so, after the ANS.1 parsing, if a driver needs to enforce software
coherency, it will have to allocate coherent memory and copy
the ANS.1 parsed data there. Is this acceptable?

Thanks,
