Does the bananapi W2 support AES NI instructions (hardware encryption acceleration)?

Banana Pi Router design BPI-W2(RTD1296)

Does this board support AES NI instructions? I read on the A53 documentation that it depends on export licenses.

Could somebody please run the following Linux command line and post the output? I want to see if the flags section includes “aes”.

cat /proc/cpuinfo

Thank you
