This patch adds helpers to check whether a given tfm is currently
queued. This is meant to be used by ablk_helper and similar
entities to ensure that no reordering is introduced because of
requests queued in cryptd with respect to requests being processed
in softirq context.
The per-cpu queue length limit is also increased to 1000 in line
with network limits.

This patch adds AEAD support into the cryptd framework. Having AEAD
support in cryptd enables crypto drivers that use the AEAD
interface type (such as the patch for AEAD based RFC4106 AES-GCM
implementation using Intel New Instructions) to leverage cryptd for
asynchronous processing.

PCLMULQDQ is used to accelerate the most time-consuming part of GHASH,
carry-less multiplication. More information about PCLMULQDQ can be
found at:
http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/carry-less-multiplication-and-its-usage-for-computing-the-gcm-mode/
Because PCLMULQDQ changes XMM state, its usage must be enclosed with
kernel_fpu_begin/end, which can be used only in process context, the
acceleration is implemented as crypto_ahash. That is, request in soft
IRQ context will be defered to the cryptd kernel thread.

cryptd_alloc_ahash() will allocate a cryptd-ed ahash for specified
algorithm name. The new allocated one is guaranteed to be cryptd-ed
ahash, so the shash underlying can be gotten via cryptd_ahash_child().

cryptd_alloc_ablkcipher() will allocate a cryptd-ed ablkcipher for
specified algorithm name. The new allocated one is guaranteed to be
cryptd-ed ablkcipher, so the blkcipher underlying can be gotten via
cryptd_ablkcipher_child().
