The x86, arm, and arm64 asm implementations of crct10dif are very
difficult to understand partly because many of the comments, labels, and
macros are named incorrectly: the lengths mentioned are usually off by a
factor of two from the actual code. Many other things are unnecessarily
convoluted as well, e.g. there are many more fold constants than
actually needed and some aren't fully reduced.
This series therefore cleans up all these implementations to be much
more maintainable. I also made some small optimizations where I saw
opportunities, resulting in slightly better performance.
This patch cleans up the x86 version.
As part of this, I removed support for len < 16 from the x86 assembly;
now the glue code falls back to the generic table-based implementation
in this case. Due to the overhead of kernel_fpu_begin(), this actually
significantly improves performance on these lengths. (And even if
kernel_fpu_begin() were free, the generic code is still faster for about
len < 11.) This removal also eliminates error-prone special cases and
makes the x86, arm32, and arm64 ports of the code match more closely.

Move them to a separate header and have the following
dependency:
x86/cpufeatures.h <- x86/processor.h <- x86/cpufeature.h
This makes it easier to use the header in asm code and not
include the whole cpufeature.h and add guards for asm.

We already have fpu/types.h, move i387.h to fpu/api.h.
The file name has become a misnomer anyway: it offers generic FPU APIs,
but is not limited to i387 functionality.

This prefixes all crypto module loading with "crypto-" so we never run
the risk of exposing module auto-loading to userspace via a crypto API,
as demonstrated by Mathias Krause:

Now that module softdeps are in the kernel we can use that to resolve
the boot issue which cause the revert.

Unfortunately this change broke boot on some systems that used an
initrd which does not include the newly created crct10dif modules.
As these modules are required by sd_mod under certain configurations
this is a serious problem.

Glue code that plugs the PCLMULQDQ accelerated CRC T10 DIF hash into the
crypto framework. The config CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF_PCLMUL should be turned
on to enable the feature. The crc_t10dif crypto library function will
use this faster algorithm when crct10dif_pclmul module is loaded.
