I did some more tests and ended up enabling 2x vector for Kepler for 
PBKDF2-HMAC-MD4/5, NTLMv2 and sha1crypt. All others (of the already 
vector capable) got worse performance:

Curiously enough, PBKDF*1*-HMAC-SHA-1 (sha1crypt) shows a 25% boost 
while all other iterated SHA-1 formats show regression, including 
PBKDF2. The theoretical difference is miniscule (an xor missing in 
PBKDF1) but in these implementations it also affects register pressure 
due to less state needing to be recorded (for split kernels). I wonder 
if I can optimize that shared PBKDF2 a little.

I guess this also suggests we should implement vectorizing for raw MD4, 
MD5 and SHA-1. And who knows, maybe SHA-256 too.
