I don't see how this has anything to do with openssl. The padlock
engine in openssl checks the CPU to see if it's available. When
it's available, it will use assembler code that makes use of it.
It does not need any kernel support for this.
As far as I know, cryptsetup does not use openssl, and everything
that has to do with the encryption happens in the kernel, which is
why it's trying to load a kernel module in the first place.
So I'm reassigning this.
I doubt this has anything to do with the kernel itself. Something is
trying to load kernel module, and you need to find what. It's
more likely this is udev or something like that doing it.
