[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1 2/2] crypto/aesni_mb: improve DOCSIS session creation

[David Coyle <david.coyle@intel.com>]

This patch improves the DOCSIS session creation as follows:
- it validates the security action type as well as the protocol before
  creating a session and now does this validation before allocating the
  session from the mempool

Fixes: fda5216fba55 ("crypto/aesni_mb: support DOCSIS protocol")
