This reverts commit cf1521a1a5.
Instruction (vpgatherdd) that this implementation relied on turned out to be
slow performer on real hardware (i5-4570). The previous 8-way twofish/AVX
implementation is therefore faster and this implementation should be removed.
Converting this implementation to use the same method as in twofish/AVX for
table look-ups would give additional ~3% speed up vs twofish/AVX, but would
hardly be worth of the added code and binary size.

Patch adds AVX2/x86-64 implementation of Twofish cipher, requiring 16 parallel
blocks for input (256 bytes). Table look-ups are performed using vpgatherdd
instruction directly from vector registers and thus should be faster than
earlier implementations. Implementation also uses 256-bit wide YMM registers,
which should give additional speed up compared to the AVX implementation.

Change twofish-avx to use the new XTS code, for smaller stack usage and small
boost to performance.
tcrypt results, with Intel i5-2450M:
enc dec
16B 1.03x 1.02x
64B 0.91x 0.91x
256B 1.10x 1.09x
1024B 1.12x 1.11x
8192B 1.12x 1.11x
Since XTS is practically always used with data blocks of size 512 bytes or
more, I chose to not make use of twofish-3way for block sized smaller than
128 bytes. This causes slower result in tcrypt for 64 bytes.

Introduce new assembler functions to avoid use temporary stack buffers in glue
code. This also allows use of vector instructions for xoring output in CTR and
CBC modes and construction of IVs for CTR mode.
ECB mode sees ~0.2% decrease in speed because added one extra function
call. CBC mode decryption and CTR mode benefit from vector operations
and gain ~3%.

'u128' currently used for CTR mode is on little-endian 'long long' swapped
and would require extra swap operations by SSE/AVX code. Use of le128
instead of u128 allows IV calculations to be done with vector registers
easier.

Initialization of cra_list is currently mixed, most ciphers initialize this
field and most shashes do not. Initialization however is not needed at all
since cra_list is initialized/overwritten in __crypto_register_alg() with
list_add(). Therefore perform cleanup to remove all unneeded initializations
of this field in 'arch/x86/crypto/'.

Now that shared glue code is available, convert twofish-avx to use it.
