[Bug 1083498] [NEW] please enable arm assembler code in openssl

[Dmitrijs Ledkovs]

Public bug reported:

Imported from Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/676533:

Package: openssl
Version: 1.0.1c-3
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Openssl has some rather nice arm assembler optimizations. For example
on pandaboard (omap4430):

benchmark    debian       with patch
sha1         55836.67k -> 73599.08k
aes-128 cbc  18451.11k -> 36305.34k
aes-256 cbc  13552.30k -> 27108.31k
sha256       20092.25k -> 43469.45k
sha512       8052.74k  -> 37194.28k
rsa 1024     1904.2v/S -> 3650.5v/s

The attached patch enables using arm assembler, as well as removes the
armeb configuration as the armeb port is long dead.
