It looks like a double rename, but it's more than that.
In first patch rte_crypto_op was renamed rte_crypto_sym_op and moved from r=
te_crypto.h to to rte_crypto_sym.h
because it was exclusively for symmetric operations.
In the later patch a more generic rte_crypto_op was introduced in rte_crypt=
o.h which can handle various operation types by having a type and union. In=
itially the only type is symmetric and so the union points to an rte_crypto=
_sym_op but it's planned to extended to handle asymmetric.

Agreed. We will look at adding the debug needed. However this is not likely=
 to make it into the patchset today.
