That's all? No more justification?
No usage in example apps?
No addition in test apps?
Is it needed for the application?

I don't know cryptodev enough, but I can tell with ethdev experience
that we are a lot more demanding when adding a new API in ethdev.
We are still fixing the API errors done years ago in ethdev,
and it is very difficult to deprecate what was used in the past.
I hope my fear is wrong and you are not doing the same errors
as we did in ethdev, it would be a pity.
