gcc-10 complains about using the name of a standard library
function in the kernel, as we are not building with -ffreestanding:
crypto/xts.c:325:13: error: conflicting types for built-in function 'free'; expected 'void(void *)' [-Werror=builtin-declaration-mismatch]
325 | static void free(struct skcipher_instance *inst)
| ^~~~
crypto/lrw.c:290:13: error: conflicting types for built-in function 'free'; expected 'void(void *)' [-Werror=builtin-declaration-mismatch]
290 | static void free(struct skcipher_instance *inst)
| ^~~~
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.
Fixes:

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
