This unifies all the FPU related header files under a unified, hiearchical
naming scheme:
- asm/fpu/types.h: FPU related data types, needed for 'struct task_struct',
widely included in almost all kernel code, and hence kept
as small as possible.
- asm/fpu/api.h: FPU related 'public' methods exported to other subsystems.
- asm/fpu/internal.h: FPU subsystem internal methods
- asm/fpu/xsave.h: XSAVE support internal methods
(Also standardize the header guard in asm/fpu/internal.h.)

Fix a minor header file dependency bug in asm/fpu-internal.h: it
relies on i387.h but does not include it. All users of fpu-internal.h
included it explicitly.
Also remove unnecessary includes, to reduce compilation time.
This also makes it easier to use it as a standalone header file
for FPU internals, such as an upcoming C module in arch/x86/kernel/fpu/.

This prefixes all crypto module loading with "crypto-" so we never run
the risk of exposing module auto-loading to userspace via a crypto API,
as demonstrated by Mathias Krause:

This patch adds the crc_pcl function that calculates CRC32C checksum using the
PCLMULQDQ instruction on processors that support this feature. This will
provide speedup over using CRC32 instruction only.
The usage of PCLMULQDQ necessitate the invocation of kernel_fpu_begin and
kernel_fpu_end and incur some overhead. So the new crc_pcl function is only
invoked for buffer size of 512 bytes or more. Larger sized
buffers will expect to see greater speedup. This feature is best used coupled
with eager_fpu which reduces the kernel_fpu_begin/end overhead. For
buffer size of 1K the speedup is around 1.6x and for buffer size greater than
4K, the speedup is around 3x compared to original implementation in crc32c-intel
module. Test was performed on Sandy Bridge based platform with constant frequency
set for cpu.

This patch renames the crc32c-intel.c file to crc32c-intel_glue.c file
in preparation for linking with the new crc32c-pcl-intel-asm.S file,
which contains optimized crc32c calculation based on PCLMULQDQ
instruction.
