I think there were some controversy regarding whether the resulting
code lived in drivers/md or crypto.  I think as long as drivers/md
is the only user of the said code then having it in drivers/md should
be fine.

However, if we end up using/reusing the same code for others such as
fs/crypto then it might make more sense to have them in crypto.

Cheers,
