Actually tested things out now, AES is working great.

I'll have to do some speed tests without a kernel supporting the padlock
stuff, and then test again with a kernel supporting the padlock code.  
Hopefully the 1ghz processor isn't fast enough to do AES for 100mbit
without padlock, or else it'll be difficult to test.  :)
