On which algorithms are the neon instructions used?
sha512, sha3, salsa20 and umac.
They make a big difference for sha512 and sha3, since they depend a lot on 64-bit operations. For umac, it would make some sense to also write some non-neon ARM assembly, using the umaal instruction as the main work horse.
