Store the LSB value of the block counter, in order to support suspend/resume of operation
The two first words (n) in the last row of the cipher matrix are the block counter. At the end of each block (512b), the block counter for the next block is written by HW to register CHACHA_BLOCK_CNT_LSB and register CHACHA_BLOCK_CNT_MSB. If starting a new message the block counter must also be reset.
