Interrupt affinity

Default IPsec transformation with ESP encapsulation plus transport mode
can be enabled by simply setting:

To avoid breaking existing testbed scripts for using AH type and tunnel mode,
user could use "pgset spi SPI_VALUE" to specify which formal of transformation
you can use "pgset spi SPI_VALUE" to specify which transformation mode
to employ.
