We do need to change these names now and even more so in future with
instantiated algorithms. So let's stop lying to the compiler and get
rid of the const modifiers.

This patch adds the hooks cra_init/cra_exit which are called during a tfm's
construction and destruction respectively. This will be used by the instances
to allocate child tfm's.
For now this lets us get rid of the coa_init/coa_exit functions which are
used for exactly that purpose (unlike the dia_init function which is called
for each transaction).
In fact the coa_exit path is currently buggy as it may get called twice
when an error is encountered during initialisation.

Up until now algorithms have been happy to get a context pointer since
they know everything that's in the tfm already (e.g., alignment, block
size).
However, once we have parameterised algorithms, such information will
be specific to each tfm. So the algorithm API needs to be changed to
pass the tfm structure instead of the context pointer.
This patch is basically a text substitution. The only tricky bit is
the assembly routines that need to get the context pointer offset
through asm-offsets.h.

Since tfm contexts can contain arbitrary types we should provide at least
natural alignment (__attribute__ ((__aligned__))) for them. In particular,
this is needed on the Xscale which is a 32-bit architecture with a u64 type
that requires 64-bit alignment. This problem was reported by Ronen Shitrit.
The crypto_tfm structure's size was 44 bytes on 32-bit architectures and
80 bytes on 64-bit architectures. So adding this requirement only means
that we have to add an extra 4 bytes on 32-bit architectures.
On i386 the natural alignment is 16 bytes which also benefits the VIA
Padlock as it no longer has to manually align its context structure to
128 bits.

This is the first step on the road towards asynchronous support in
the Crypto API. It adds support for having multiple crypto_alg objects
for the same algorithm registered in the system.
For example, each device driver would register a crypto_alg object
for each algorithm that it supports. While at the same time the
user may load software implementations of those same algorithms.
Users of the Crypto API may then select a specific implementation
by name, or choose any implementation for a given algorithm with
the highest priority.
The priority field is a 32-bit signed integer. In future it will be
possible to modify it from user-space.
This also provides a solution to the problem of selecting amongst
various AES implementations, that is, aes vs. aes-i586 vs. aes-padlock.

The crypto layer currently uses in_atomic() to determine whether it is
allowed to sleep. This is incorrect since spin locks don't always cause
in_atomic() to return true.
Instead of that, this patch returns to an earlier idea of a per-tfm flag
which determines whether sleeping is allowed. Unlike the earlier version,
the default is to not allow sleeping. This ensures that no existing code
can break.
As usual, this flag may either be set through crypto_alloc_tfm(), or
just before a specific crypto operation.

This patch ensures that cit_iv is aligned according to cra_alignmask
by allocating it as part of the tfm structure. As a side effect the
crypto layer will also guarantee that the tfm ctx area has enough space
to be aligned by cra_alignmask. This allows us to remove the extra
space reservation from the Padlock driver.

The VIA Padlock device requires the input and output buffers to
be aligned on 16-byte boundaries. This patch adds the alignmask
attribute for low-level cipher implementations to indicate their
alignment requirements.
The mid-level crypt() function will copy the input/output buffers
if they are not aligned correctly before they are passed to the
low-level implementation.
Strictly speaking, some of the software implementations require
the buffers to be aligned on 4-byte boundaries as they do 32-bit
loads. However, it is not clear whether it is better to copy
the buffers or pay the penalty for unaligned loads/stores.

This patch adds hooks for cipher algorithms to implement multi-block
ECB/CBC operations directly. This is expected to provide significant
performance boots to the VIA Padlock.
It could also be used for improving software implementations such as
AES where operating on multiple blocks at a time may enable certain
optimisations.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
