[EXT] [PATCH v2 02/14] cryptodev: reduce number of comments in asym xform

[Akhil Goyal]

> - Reduced number of comments in asymmetric xform.
> Information describing basic functionality of well known
> algorithms are unnecessary.
> - Removed NONE asymetric xform.

I commented on v1 not to remove this and I do not see comment from your side
for removing it.

Since you are deferring the change for xform, it is better to keep the
Above description as well. So no need for this above change.

I believe it is better to have a short one line description is good to have
For someone who is new to asymmetric cryptography.

You can remove "* Refer to rte_crypto_asym_op_type "
