Subject: [PATCH] crypto: arc4 - improve performance by using u32 for ctx and
 variables

This patch changes u8 in struct arc4_ctx and variables to u32 (as AMD seems
to have problem with u8 array). Below are tcrypt results of old 1-byte block
cipher versus ecb(arc4) with u8 and ecb(arc4) with u32.

tcrypt results, x86-64 (speed ratios: new-u32/old, new-u8/old):

                  u32    u8
AMD Phenom II   : x3.6   x2.7
Intel Core 2    : x2.0   x1.9

tcrypt results, i386 (speed ratios: new-u32/old, new-u8/old):

                  u32    u8
Intel Atom N260 : x1.5   x1.4
