In linux kernel since version 3.10 (release Date: 2013-06-30)
Selecting this will use CAAM Queue Interface (QI) for sending
& receiving crypto jobs to/from CAAM. This gives better performance
than job ring interface when the number of cores are more than the
number of job rings assigned to the kernel. The number of portals
assigned to the kernel should also be more than the number of
job rings.
