Implement vli_mmod_fast_521 following the description for how to calculate the modulus for NIST P521 in the NIST publication "Recommendations for Discrete Logarithm-Based Cryptography: Elliptic Curve Domain Parameters" section G.1.4. NIST p521 requires 9 64bit digits, so increase the ECC_MAX_DIGITS so that the vli digit array provides enough elements to fit the larger integers required by this curve.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
