Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers: "This is the main crypto library pull request for 6.17. The main focus this cycle is on reorganizing the SHA-1 and SHA-2 code, providing high-quality library APIs for SHA-1 and SHA-2 including HMAC support, and establishing conventions for lib/crypto/ going forward:
- Migrate the SHA-1 and SHA-512 code (and also SHA-384 which shares most of the SHA-512 code) into lib/crypto/. This includes both the generic and architecture-optimized code. Greatly simplify how the architecture-optimized code is integrated. Add an easy-to-use library API for each SHA variant, including HMAC support. Finally, reimplement the crypto_shash support on top of the library API.
- Apply the same reorganization to the SHA-256 code (and also SHA-224 which shares most of the SHA-256 code). This is a somewhat smaller change, due to my earlier work on SHA-256. But this brings in all the same additional improvements that I made for SHA-1 and SHA-512.
There are also some smaller changes:
- Move the architecture-optimized ChaCha, Poly1305, and BLAKE2s code from arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/crypto/ to lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/. For these algorithms it's just a move, not a full reorganization yet.
- Fix the MIPS chacha-core.S to build with the clang assembler.
- Fix the Poly1305 functions to work in all contexts.
- Fix a performance regression in the x86_64 Poly1305 code.
- Clean up the x86_64 SHA-NI optimized SHA-1 assembly code.
Note that since the new organization of the SHA code is much simpler, the diffstat of this pull request is negative, despite the addition of new fully-documented library APIs for multiple SHA and HMAC-SHA variants.
These APIs will allow further simplifications across the kernel as users start using them instead of the old-school crypto API. (I've already written a lot of such conversion patches, removing over 1000 more lines of code. But most of those will target 6.18 or later)"

lib/crypto: sha256: Consolidate into single module
Consolidate the CPU-based SHA-256 code into a single module, following what I did with SHA-512:
- Each arch now provides a header file lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/sha256.h, replacing lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/sha256.c. The header defines sha256_blocks() and optionally sha256_mod_init_arch(). It is included by lib/crypto/sha256.c, and thus the code gets built into the single libsha256 module, with proper inlining and dead code elimination.
- sha256_blocks_generic() is moved from lib/crypto/sha256-generic.c into lib/crypto/sha256.c. It's now a static function marked with __maybe_unused, so the compiler automatically eliminates it in any cases where it's not used.
- Whether arch-optimized SHA-256 is buildable is now controlled centrally by lib/crypto/Kconfig instead of by lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/Kconfig. The conditions for enabling it remain the same as before, and it remains enabled by default.
- Any additional arch-specific translation units for the optimized SHA-256 code (such as assembly files) are now compiled by lib/crypto/Makefile instead of lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile.
