This reverts commit ae131f4970 ("crypto: api - Add crypto_tfm_get").
The refcount in struct crypto_tfm was added solely to support
crypto_clone_tfm(). Before then it was a simple non-refcounted object.
Since crypto_clone_tfm() has been removed, remove the refcount as well.
Note that this eliminates an expensive atomic operation from every tfm
freeing operation. So this revert doesn't just remove unused code, but
it also fixes a performance regression.

Some drivers cannot have a fallback, e.g., because the key is held
in hardware. Allow these to be used with ahash by adding the bit
CRYPTO_ALG_NO_FALLBACK.

Provide an option to handle the partial blocks in the shash API.
Almost every hash algorithm has a block size and are only able
to hash partial blocks on finalisation.
Rather than duplicating the partial block handling many times,
add this functionality to the shash API.
It is optional (e.g., hmac would never need this by relying on
the partial block handling of the underlying hash), and to enable
it set the bit CRYPTO_AHASH_ALG_BLOCK_ONLY.
The export format is always that of the underlying hash export,
plus the partial block buffer, followed by a single-byte for the
partial block length.
Set the bit CRYPTO_AHASH_ALG_FINAL_NONZERO to withhold an extra
byte in the partial block. This will come in handy when this
is extended to ahash where hardware often can't deal with a
zero-length final.
It will also be used for algorithms requiring an extra block for
finalisation (e.g., cmac).
As an optimisation, set the bit CRYPTO_AHASH_ALG_FINUP_MAX if
the algorithm wishes to get as much data as possible instead of
just the last partial block.
The descriptor will be zeroed after finalisation.

If the bit CRYPTO_ALG_DUP_FIRST is set, an algorithm will be
duplicated by kmemdup before registration. This is inteded for
hardware-based algorithms that may be unplugged at will.
Do not use this if the algorithm data structure is embedded in a
bigger data structure. Perform the duplication in the driver
instead.

The 'comp' compression API has been superseded by the acomp API, which
is a bit more cumbersome to use, but ultimately more flexible when it
comes to hardware implementations.
Now that all the users and implementations have been removed, let's
remove the core plumbing of the 'comp' API as well.

Add ACOMP_REQUEST_ALLOC which is a wrapper around acomp_request_alloc
that falls back to a synchronous stack reqeust if the allocation
fails.
Also add ACOMP_REQUEST_ON_STACK which stores the request on the stack
only.
The request should be freed with acomp_request_free.
Finally add acomp_request_alloc_extra which gives the user extra
memory to use in conjunction with the request.

This patch adds virtual address support to ahash. Virtual addresses
were previously only supported through shash. The user may choose
to use virtual addresses with ahash by calling ahash_request_set_virt
instead of ahash_request_set_crypt.
The API will take care of translating this to an SG list if necessary,
unless the algorithm declares that it supports chaining. Therefore
in order for an ahash algorithm to support chaining, it must also
support virtual addresses directly.

This adds request chaining to the ahash interface. Request chaining
allows multiple requests to be submitted in one shot. An algorithm
can elect to receive chained requests by setting the flag
CRYPTO_ALG_REQ_CHAIN. If this bit is not set, the API will break
up chained requests and submit them one-by-one.
A new err field is added to struct crypto_async_request to record
the return value for each individual request.

Currently, the ahash API checks the alignment of all key and result
buffers against the algorithm's declared alignmask, and for any
unaligned buffers it falls back to manually aligned temporary buffers.
This is virtually useless, however. First, since it does not apply to
the message, its effect is much more limited than e.g. is the case for
the alignmask for "skcipher". Second, the key and result buffers are
given as virtual addresses and cannot (in general) be DMA'ed into, so
drivers end up having to copy to/from them in software anyway. As a
result it's easy to use memcpy() or the unaligned access helpers.
The crypto_hash_walk_*() helper functions do use the alignmask to align
the message. But with one exception those are only used for shash
algorithms being exposed via the ahash API, not for native ahashes, and
aligning the message is not required in this case, especially now that
alignmask support has been removed from shash. The exception is the
n2_core driver, which doesn't set an alignmask.
In any case, no ahash algorithms actually set a nonzero alignmask
anymore. Therefore, remove support for it from ahash. The benefit is
that all the code to handle "misaligned" buffers in the ahash API goes
away, reducing the overhead of the ahash API.
This follows the same change that was made to shash.

Split out the sign/verify functionality from the existing akcipher
interface. Most algorithms in akcipher either support encryption
and decryption, or signing and verify. Only one supports both.
As a signature algorithm may not support encryption at all, these
two should be spearated.
For now sig is simply a wrapper around akcipher as all algorithms
remain unchanged. This is a first step and allows users to start
allocating sig instead of akcipher.

Add a crypto_tfm_get interface to allow tfm objects to be shared.
They can still be freed in the usual way.
This should only be done with tfm objects with no keys. You must
also not modify the tfm flags in any way once it becomes shared.

Move all stat code specific to rng into the rng code.
While we're at it, change the stats so that bytes and counts
are always incremented even in case of error. This allows the
reference counting to be removed as we can now increment the
counters prior to the operation.
After the operation we simply increase the error count if necessary.
This is safe as errors can only occur synchronously (or rather,
the existing code already ignored asynchronous errors which are
only visible to the callback function).
