crypto: aesni - disable "by8" AVX CTR optimization

The "by8" implementation introduced in commit 22cddcc7df ("crypto: aes
- AES CTR x86_64 "by8" AVX optimization") is failing crypto tests as it
handles counter block overflows differently. It only accounts the right
most 32 bit as a counter -- not the whole block as all other
implementations do. This makes it fail the cryptomgr test  that
specifically tests this corner case.

As we're quite late in the release cycle, just disable the "by8" variant
for now.
