The cipher routines in the crypto API are mostly intended for templates
implementing skcipher modes generically in software, and shouldn't be
used outside of the crypto subsystem. So move the prototypes and all
related definitions to a new header file under include/crypto/internal.
Also, let's use the new module namespace feature to move the symbol
exports into a new namespace CRYPTO_INTERNAL.

Colin reports that the memcpy() call in xts_cts_final() trigggers a
"Overlapping buffer in memory copy" warning in Coverity, which is a
false postive, given that tail is guaranteed to be smaller than or
equal to the distance between source and destination.
However, given that any additional bytes that we copy will be ignored
anyway, we can simply copy XTS_BLOCK_SIZE unconditionally, which means
we can use struct assignment of the array members instead, which is
likely to be more efficient as well.

Overly-generic names can cause problems like naming collisions,
confusing crash reports, and reduced grep-ability. E.g. see
commit d099ea6e6f ("crypto - Avoid free() namespace collision").
Clean this up for the xts template by prefixing the names with "xts_".
(I didn't use "crypto_xts_" instead because that seems overkill.)
Also constify the tfm context in a couple places, and make
xts_free_instance() use the instance context structure so that it
doesn't just assume the crypto_skcipher_spawn is at the beginning.

CRYPTO_ALG_NEED_FALLBACK is handled inconsistently. When it's requested
to be clear, some templates propagate that request to child algorithms,
while others don't.
It's apparently desired for NEED_FALLBACK to be propagated, to avoid
deadlocks where a module tries to load itself while it's being
initialized, and to avoid unnecessarily complex fallback chains where we
have e.g. cbc-aes-$driver falling back to cbc(aes-$driver) where
aes-$driver itself falls back to aes-generic, instead of cbc-aes-$driver
simply falling back to cbc(aes-generic). There have been a number of
fixes to this effect:
commit 89027579bc ("crypto: xts - Propagate NEED_FALLBACK bit")
commit d2c2a85cfe ("crypto: ctr - Propagate NEED_FALLBACK bit")
commit e6c2e65c70 ("crypto: cbc - Propagate NEED_FALLBACK bit")
But it seems that other templates can have the same problems too.
To avoid this whack-a-mole, just add NEED_FALLBACK to INHERITED_FLAGS so
that it's always inherited.

The flag CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC is "inherited" in the sense that when a
template is instantiated, the template will have CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC set if
any of the algorithms it uses has CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC set.
We'd like to add a second flag (CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY) that gets
"inherited" in the same way. This is difficult because the handling of
CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC is hardcoded everywhere. Address this by:
- Add CRYPTO_ALG_INHERITED_FLAGS, which contains the set of flags that
have these inheritance semantics.
- Add crypto_algt_inherited_mask(), for use by template ->create()
methods. It returns any of these flags that the user asked to be
unset and thus must be passed in the 'mask' to crypto_grab_*().
- Also modify crypto_check_attr_type() to handle computing the 'mask'
so that most templates can just use this.
- Make crypto_grab_*() propagate these flags to the template instance
being created so that templates don't have to do this themselves.
Make crypto/simd.c propagate these flags too, since it "wraps" another
algorithm, similar to a template.

crypto/lrw.c:27:1: note: 'free' is declared in header '<stdlib.h>'
The xts and lrw cipher implementations run into this because they do
not use the conventional namespaced function names.
It might be better to rename all local functions in those files to
help with things like 'ctags' and 'grep', but just renaming these two
avoids the build issue. I picked the more verbose crypto_xts_free()
and crypto_lrw_free() names for consistency with several other drivers
that do use namespaced function names.

Initializing a crypto_skcipher_spawn currently requires:
1. Set spawn->base.inst to point to the instance.
2. Call crypto_grab_skcipher().
But there's no reason for these steps to be separate, and in fact this
unneeded complication has caused at least one bug, the one fixed by
commit 6db4341017 ("crypto: adiantum - initialize crypto_spawn::inst")
So just make crypto_grab_skcipher() take the instance as an argument.
To keep the function calls from getting too unwieldy due to this extra
argument, also introduce a 'mask' variable into the affected places
which weren't already using one.

The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags were apparently meant as a way to make the
->setkey() functions provide more information about errors. But these
flags weren't actually being used or tested, and in many cases they
weren't being set correctly anyway. So they've now been removed.
Also, if someone ever actually needs to start better distinguishing
->setkey() errors (which is somewhat unlikely, as this has been unneeded
for a long time), we'd be much better off just defining different return
values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs.
-EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys".
That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test.
So just remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_MASK and all the unneeded logic that
propagates these flags around.

Use subsys_initcall for registration of all templates and generic
algorithm implementations, rather than module_init. Then change
cryptomgr to use arch_initcall, to place it before the subsys_initcalls.
This is needed so that when both a generic and optimized implementation
of an algorithm are built into the kernel (not loadable modules), the
generic implementation is registered before the optimized one.
Otherwise, the self-tests for the optimized implementation are unable to
allocate the generic implementation for the new comparison fuzz tests.
Note that on arm, a side effect of this change is that self-tests for
generic implementations may run before the unaligned access handler has
been installed. So, unaligned accesses will crash the kernel. This is
arguably a good thing as it makes it easier to detect that type of bug.

Since commit acb9b159c7 ("crypto: gf128mul - define gf128mul_x_* in
gf128mul.h"), the gf128mul_x_*() functions are very fast and therefore
caching the computed XTS tweaks has only negligible advantage over
computing them twice.
In fact, since the current caching implementation limits the size of
the calls to the child ecb(...) algorithm to PAGE_SIZE (usually 4096 B),
it is often actually slower than the simple recomputing implementation.
This patch simplifies the XTS template to recompute the XTS tweaks from
scratch in the second pass and thus also removes the need to allocate a
dynamic buffer using kmalloc().
As discussed at [1], the use of kmalloc causes deadlocks with dm-crypt.
PERFORMANCE RESULTS
I measured time to encrypt/decrypt a memory buffer of varying sizes with
xts(ecb-aes-aesni) using a tool I wrote ([2]) and the results suggest
that after this patch the performance is either better or comparable for
both small and large buffers. Note that there is a lot of noise in the
measurements, but the overall difference is easy to see.

In the generic XTS and LRW algorithms, for input data > 128 bytes, a
temporary buffer is allocated to hold the values to be XOR'ed with the
data before and after encryption or decryption. If the allocation
fails, the fixed-size buffer embedded in the request buffer is meant to
be used as a fallback --- resulting in more calls to the ECB algorithm,
but still producing the correct result. However, we weren't correctly
limiting subreq->cryptlen in this case, resulting in pre_crypt()
overrunning the embedded buffer. Fix this by setting subreq->cryptlen

and may or may not be properly aligned. If it is not, it will break
hardware cipher like the geode or padlock.
This patch encrypts the IV in place so we don't have to worry about
alignment.

XTS currently considered to be the successor of the LRW mode by the IEEE1619
workgroup. LRW was discarded, because it was not secure if the encyption key
itself is encrypted with LRW.
XTS does not have this problem. The implementation is pretty straightforward,
a new function was added to gf128mul to handle GF(128) elements in ble format.
Four testvectors from the specification
http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/1619/email/pdf00086.pdf
were added, and they verify on my system.
