commit 5d26a105b5a73e5635eae0629b42fa0a90e07b7b upstream.

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:

Patch 638591c enabled building the AES assembler code in Thumb2 mode.
However, this code used arithmetic involving PC rather than adr{l}
instructions to generate PC-relative references to the lookup tables,
and this needs to take into account the different PC offset when
running in Thumb mode.

This patch fixes aes-armv4.S and sha1-armv4-large.S to work
natively in Thumb.  This allows ARM/Thumb interworking workarounds
to be removed.

I also take the opportunity to convert some explicit assembler
directives for exported functions to the standard
ENTRY()/ENDPROC().

For the code itself:

  * In sha1_block_data_order, use of TEQ with sp is deprecated in
    ARMv7 and not supported in Thumb.  For the branches back to
    .L_00_15 and .L_40_59, the TEQ is converted to a CMP, under the
    assumption that clobbering the C flag here will not cause
    incorrect behaviour.

    For the first branch back to .L_20_39_or_60_79 the C flag is
    important, so sp is moved temporarily into another register so
    that TEQ can be used for the comparison.

  * In the AES code, most forms of register-indexed addressing with
    shifts and rotates are not permitted for loads and stores in
    Thumb, so the address calculation is done using a separate
    instruction for the Thumb case.

The resulting code is unlikely to be optimally scheduled, but it
should not have a large impact given the overall size of the code.
I haven't run any benchmarks.
