I think the intent of that discussion was misunderstood from our end.
But this is not going to work for hardware devices.

Because in case of hardware implementation, the scheduling is done in 
hardware and hardware cannot call the get API to get the event 
information then map to event device. Actually the scheduling has 
happened before the crypto_op is dequeued from the event port. So there 
is no point of set/get private data in our case.

We need to map the crypto queues to the event queue_ids at the time of 
queue_pair add API. In hardware scheduler, we map n(may be 1-8) crypto 
queues to m event queues(<= n). We can assign multiple sessions to any 
crypto queue pair, and after the crypto op is received by event queue, 
they are appropriately scheduled by hardware to event ports.

Session based mapping to event queue cannot be supported. Our design is 
same as that of eth rx adapter.
