Is it possible to "rebase" the patches and include them in the recipe?
In case it is not and we do need a fork it is better to use
cryptodev-linux-fsl-ppc and cryptodev-module-fsl-ppc recipes to make
clear it is a fork.

Either way works for me. Fully upstreamed code is of course the best
alternative.
