<title>ARM: 9287/1: Reduce __thumb2__ definition to crypto files that require it</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 1d2e9b67b001 ("ARM: 9265/1: pass -march= only to compiler") added
a __thumb2__ define to ASFLAGS to avoid build errors in the crypto code,
which relies on __thumb2__ for preprocessing. Commit 59e2cf8d21e0 ("ARM:
9275/1: Drop '-mthumb' from AFLAGS_ISA") followed up on this by removing
-mthumb from AFLAGS so that __thumb2__ would not be defined when the
default target was ARMv7 or newer.

Unfortunately, the second commit's fix assumes that the toolchain
defaults to -mno-thumb / -marm, which is not the case for Debian's
arm-linux-gnueabihf target, which defaults to -mthumb:

  $ echo | arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -dM -E - | grep __thumb
  #define __thumb2__ 1
  #define __thumb__ 1

This target is used by several CI systems, which will still see
redefined macro warnings, despite '-mthumb' not being present in the
flags:

  &lt;command-line&gt;: warning: "__thumb2__" redefined
  &lt;built-in&gt;: note: this is the location of the previous definition

Remove the global AFLAGS __thumb2__ define and move it to the crypto
folder where it is required by the imported OpenSSL algorithms; the rest
of the kernel should use the internal CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL symbol to
know whether or not Thumb2 is being used or not. Be sure that __thumb2__
is undefined first so that there are no macro redefinition warnings.

The helper crypto_tfm_ctx is only used by the Crypto API algorithm
code and should really be in algapi.h.  However, for historical
reasons many files relied on it to be in crypto.h.  This patch
changes those files to use algapi.h instead in prepartion for a
move.

<title>crypto: arm/nhpoly1305 - eliminate unnecessary CFI wrapper</title>

The arm architecture doesn't support CFI yet, and even if it did, the
new CFI implementation supports indirect calls to assembly functions.
Therefore, there's no need to use a wrapper function for nh_neon().

<title>crypto: move gf128mul library into lib/crypto</title>

<content type='text'>
The gf128mul library does not depend on the crypto API at all, so it can
be moved into lib/crypto. This will allow us to use it in other library
code in a subsequent patch without having to depend on CONFIG_CRYPTO.

While at it, change the Kconfig symbol name to align with other crypto
library implementations. However, the source file name is retained, as
it is reflected in the module .ko filename, and changing this might
break things for users.
