This patch adds a random number generator interface as well as a
cryptographic pseudo-random number generator based on AES. It is
meant to be used in cases where a deterministic CPRNG is required.
One of the first applications will be as an input in the IPsec IV
generation process.

Add the ability to turn FIPS-compliant mode on or off at boot
In order to be FIPS compliant, several check may need to be preformed that may
be construed as unusefull in a non-compliant mode. This patch allows us to set
a kernel flag incating that we are running in a fips-compliant mode from boot
up. It also exports that mode information to user space via a sysctl
(/proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled).
Tested successfully by me.

For compatibility with dm-crypt initramfs setups it is useful to merge
chainiv/seqiv into the crypto_blkcipher module. Since they're required
by most algorithms anyway this is an acceptable trade-off.

This generator generates an IV based on a sequence number by xoring it
with a salt. This algorithm is mainly useful for CTR and similar modes.
This patch also sets it as the default IV generator for ctr.

This generator generates an IV based on a sequence number by xoring it
with a salt and then encrypting it with the same key as used to encrypt
the plain text. This algorithm requires that the block size be equal
to the IV size. It is mainly useful for CBC.
It has one noteworthy property that for IPsec the IV happens to lie
just before the plain text so the IV generation simply increases the
number of encrypted blocks by one. Therefore the cost of this generator
is entirely dependent on the speed of the underlying cipher.

The chain IV generator is the one we've been using in the IPsec stack.
It simply starts out with a random IV, then uses the last block of each
encrypted packet's cipher text as the IV for the next packet.
It can only be used by synchronous ciphers since we have to make sure
that we don't start the encryption of the next packet until the last
one has completed.
It does have the advantage of using very little CPU time since it doesn't
have to generate anything at all.

With the impending addition of the givcipher type, both blkcipher and
ablkcipher algorithms will use it to create givcipher objects. As such
it no longer makes sense to split the system between ablkcipher and
blkcipher. In particular, both ablkcipher.c and blkcipher.c would need
to use the givcipher type which has to reside in ablkcipher.c since it
shares much code with it.
This patch merges the two Kconfig options as well as the modules into one.

This patch implements CTR mode for IPsec.
It is based off of RFC 3686.
Please note:
1. CTR turns a block cipher into a stream cipher.
Encryption is done in blocks, however the last block
may be a partial block.
A "counter block" is encrypted, creating a keystream
that is xor'ed with the plaintext. The counter portion
of the counter block is incremented after each block
of plaintext is encrypted.
Decryption is performed in same manner.
2. The CTR counterblock is composed of,
nonce + IV + counter
The size of the counterblock is equivalent to the
blocksize of the cipher.
sizeof(nonce) + sizeof(IV) + sizeof(counter) = blocksize
The CTR template requires the name of the cipher
algorithm, the sizeof the nonce, and the sizeof the iv.
ctr(cipher,sizeof_nonce,sizeof_iv)
So for example,
ctr(aes,4,8)
specifies the counterblock will be composed of 4 bytes
from a nonce, 8 bytes from the iv, and 4 bytes for counter
since aes has a blocksize of 16 bytes.
3. The counter portion of the counter block is stored
in big endian for conformance to rfc 3686.

Loading the crypto algorithm by the alias instead of by module directly
has the advantage that all possible implementations of this algorithm
are loaded automatically and the crypto API can choose the best one
depending on its priority.
Additionally it ensures that the generic implementation as well as the
HW driver (if available) is loaded in case the HW driver needs the
generic version as fallback in corner cases.
Also remove the probe for sha1 in padlock's init code.
Quote from Herbert:
The probe is actually pointless since we can always probe when
the algorithm is actually used which does not lead to dead-locks
like this.
