There are quite a number of occurrences in the kernel of the pattern
if (dst != src)
memcpy(dst, src, walk.total % AES_BLOCK_SIZE);
crypto_xor(dst, final, walk.total % AES_BLOCK_SIZE);
or
crypto_xor(keystream, src, nbytes);
memcpy(dst, keystream, nbytes);
where crypto_xor() is preceded or followed by a memcpy() invocation
that is only there because crypto_xor() uses its output parameter as
one of the inputs. To avoid having to add new instances of this pattern
in the arm64 code, which will be refactored to implement non-SIMD
fallbacks, add an alternative implementation called crypto_xor_cpy(),
taking separate input and output arguments. This removes the need for
the separate memcpy().

Currently, the bit sliced NEON AES code for ARM has a link time
dependency on the scalar ARM asm implementation, which it uses as a
fallback to perform CBC encryption and the encryption of the initial
XTS tweak.
The bit sliced NEON code is both fast and time invariant, which makes
it a reasonable default on hardware that supports it. However, the
ARM asm code it pulls in is not time invariant, and due to the way it
is linked in, cannot be overridden by the new generic time invariant
driver. In fact, it will not be used at all, given that the ARM asm
code registers itself as a cipher with a priority that exceeds the
priority of the fixed time cipher.
So remove the link time dependency, and allocate the fallback cipher
via the crypto API. Note that this requires this driver's module_init
call to be replaced with late_initcall, so that the (possibly generic)
fallback cipher is guaranteed to be available when the builtin test
is performed at registration time.

The ARM bit sliced AES core code uses the IV buffer to pass the final
keystream block back to the glue code if the input is not a multiple of
the block size, so that the asm code does not have to deal with anything
except 16 byte blocks. This is done under the assumption that the outgoing
IV is meaningless anyway in this case, given that chaining is no longer
possible under these circumstances.
However, as it turns out, the CCM driver does expect the IV to retain
a value that is equal to the original IV except for the counter value,
and even interprets byte zero as a length indicator, which may result
in memory corruption if the IV is overwritten with something else.
So use a separate buffer to return the final keystream block.

This replaces the unwieldy generated implementation of bit-sliced AES
in CBC/CTR/XTS modes that originated in the OpenSSL project with a
new version that is heavily based on the OpenSSL implementation, but
has a number of advantages over the old version:
- it does not rely on the scalar AES cipher that also originated in the
OpenSSL project and contains redundant lookup tables and key schedule
generation routines (which we already have in crypto/aes_generic.)
- it uses the same expanded key schedule for encryption and decryption,
reducing the size of the per-key data structure by 1696 bytes
- it adds an implementation of AES in ECB mode, which can be wrapped by
other generic chaining mode implementations
- it moves the handling of corner cases that are non critical to performance
to the glue layer written in C
- it was written directly in assembler rather than generated from a Perl
script
