+   Packet-size based distribution mode, which works with 2 slaves, primary
+   slave and secondary slave, and distribute the enqueued crypto ops to them
+   based on their data lengths. A crypto op will be distributed to the primary
+   slave if its data length equals or bigger than the designated threshold,
+   otherwise it will be handled by the secondary slave.
+
+   A typical usecase of this mode is with QAT cryptodev as primary and a
+   software cryptodev as secondary slave. This may help the application being
+   capable of processing extra crypto workload than what the sole QAT cryptodev
+   can handle, by making use of the available CPU cycles to deal with lesser
+   crypto workloads.
