crypto-ipsecmb: fix perf scaling in ipsecmb v1.3
Type: fix This patch adds a fix for an issue in the ipsecmb library resulting in lower than expected performance in multi-threaded scenarios. This is due to multiple threads writing the same global variable simultaneously. Signed-off-by: marcel.d.cornu@intel.com Change-Id: Ibcac321aa40da4b1709198dec3e18226e3891138
