GHASH is implemented as a shash algorithm. The actual implementation
is copied from gcm.c. This makes it possible to add
architecture/hardware accelerated GHASH implementation.

The current "comp" crypto interface supports one-shot (de)compression only,
i.e. the whole data buffer to be (de)compressed must be passed at once, and
the whole (de)compressed data buffer will be received at once.
In several use-cases (e.g. compressed file systems that store files in big
compressed blocks), this workflow is not suitable.
Furthermore, the "comp" type doesn't provide for the configuration of
(de)compression parameters, and always allocates workspace memory for both
compression and decompression, which may waste memory.
To solve this, add a "pcomp" partial (de)compression interface that provides
the following operations:
- crypto_compress_{init,update,final}() for compression,
- crypto_decompress_{init,update,final}() for decompression,
- crypto_{,de}compress_setup(), to configure (de)compression parameters
(incl. allocating workspace memory).
The (de)compression methods take a struct comp_request, which was mimicked
after the z_stream object in zlib, and contains buffer pointer and length
pairs for input and output.
The setup methods take an opaque parameter pointer and length pair. Parameters
are supposed to be encoded using netlink attributes, whose meanings depend on
the actual (name of the) (de)compression algorithm.

Use dedicated workqueue for crypto subsystem
A dedicated workqueue named kcrypto_wq is created to be used by crypto
subsystem. The system shared keventd_wq is not suitable for
encryption/decryption, because of potential starvation problem.

The shash interface replaces the current synchronous hash interface.
It improves over hash in two ways. Firstly shash is reentrant,
meaning that the same tfm may be used by two threads simultaneously
as all hashing state is stored in a local descriptor.
The other enhancement is that shash no longer takes scatter list
entries. This is because shash is specifically designed for
synchronous algorithms and as such scatter lists are unnecessary.
All existing hash users will be converted to shash once the
algorithms have been completely converted.
There is also a new finup function that combines update with final.
This will be extended to ahash once the algorithm conversion is
done.
This is also the first time that an algorithm type has their own
registration function. Existing algorithm types will be converted
to this way in due course.

If we have at least one algorithm built-in then it no longer makes
sense to have the testing framework, and hence cryptomgr to be a
module. It should be either on or off, i.e., built-in or disabled.
This just happens to stop a potential runaway modprobe loop that
seems to trigger on at least one distro.

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

This generator generates an IV based on a sequence number by xoring it

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.
