[EXTERNAL] [PATCH] app/crypto-perf: fix aad offset alignment

[Akhil Goyal]

Hi,

Agreed that CCM has a requirement for 16B alignment.
But for GCM, does it break any protocol? Can we not align to byte boundary for performance?
This is a performance application which mainly focus on getting the best throughput.
Did you check if it is having some performance degradation?
