Well the main advantage of doing it on top of the existing xts is
that you can retain the existing ARM implementations without any
changes. This would also apply to any existing xts drivers that
also don't implement CTS (I'm not aware of the status on these so
someone will need to check them one by one).
But if you were going to volunteer to change them all in one swoop
then it wouldn't matter.
