Since crc32_generic.c and crc32c_generic.c now expose both the generic
and architecture-optimized implementations via the crypto_shash API,
rather than just the generic implementations as they originally did,
remove the "generic" part of the filenames and module names:

    crypto/crc32-generic.c =&gt; crypto/crc32.c
    crypto/crc32c-generic.c =&gt; crypto/crc32c.c
    crc32-generic.ko =&gt; crc32-cryptoapi.ko
    crc32c-generic.ko =&gt; crc32c-cryptoapi.ko

The reason for adding the -cryptoapi suffixes to the module names is to
avoid a module name collision with crc32.ko which is the library API.

We could instead rename the library module to libcrc32.ko.  However,
while lib/crypto/ uses that convention, the rest of lib/ doesn't.  Since
the library API is the primary API for CRC-32, I'd like to keep the
unsuffixed name for it and make the Crypto API modules use a suffix.

<title>crypto: crc32 - don't unnecessarily register arch algorithms</title>

Instead of registering the crc32-$arch and crc32c-$arch algorithms if
the arch-specific code was built, only register them when that code was
built *and* is not falling back to the base implementation at runtime.

This avoids confusing users like btrfs which checks the shash driver
name to determine whether it is crc32c-generic.

(It would also make sense to change btrfs to test the crc32_optimization
flags itself, so that it doesn't have to use the weird hack of parsing
the driver name.  This change still makes sense either way though.)

<title>lib/crc32: improve support for arch-specific overrides</title>

Currently the CRC32 library functions are defined as weak symbols, and
the arm64 and riscv architectures override them.

This method of arch-specific overrides has the limitation that it only
works when both the base and arch code is built-in.  Also, it makes the
arch-specific code be silently not used if it is accidentally built with
lib-y instead of obj-y; unfortunately the RISC-V code does this.

This commit reorganizes the code to have explicit *_arch() functions
that are called when they are enabled, similar to how some of the crypto
library code works (e.g. chacha_crypt() calls chacha_crypt_arch()).

Make the existing kconfig choice for the CRC32 implementation also
control whether the arch-optimized implementation (if one is available)
is enabled or not.  Make it enabled by default if CRC32 is also enabled.

The result is that arch-optimized CRC32 library functions will be
included automatically when appropriate, but it is now possible to
disable them.  They can also now be built as a loadable module if the
CRC32 library functions happen to be used only by loadable modules, in
which case the arch and base CRC32 modules will be automatically loaded
via direct symbol dependency when appropriate.

<title>crypto: crc32 - Provide crc32-arch driver for accelerated library code</title>

crc32-generic is currently backed by the architecture's CRC-32 library
code, which may offer a variety of implementations depending on the
capabilities of the platform. These are not covered by the crypto
subsystem's fuzz testing capabilities because crc32-generic is the
reference driver that the fuzzing logic uses as a source of truth.

Fix this by providing a crc32-arch implementation which is based on the
arch library code if available, and modify crc32-generic so it is
always based on the generic C implementation. If the arch has no CRC-32
library code, this change does nothing.

<title>crypto: remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN</title>

<id>674f368a952c48ede71784935a799a5205b92b6c</id>
<content type='text'>
The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN flag was apparently meant as a way to
make the -&gt;setkey() functions provide more information about errors.

However, no one actually checks for this flag, which makes it pointless.

Also, many algorithms fail to set this flag when given a bad length key.
Reviewing just the generic implementations, this is the case for
aes-fixed-time, cbcmac, echainiv, nhpoly1305, pcrypt, rfc3686, rfc4309,
rfc7539, rfc7539esp, salsa20, seqiv, and xcbc.  But there are probably
many more in arch/*/crypto/ and drivers/crypto/.

Some algorithms can even set this flag when the key is the correct
length.  For example, authenc and authencesn set it when the key payload
is malformed in any way (not just a bad length), the atmel-sha and ccree
drivers can set it if a memory allocation fails, and the chelsio driver
sets it for bad auth tag lengths, not just bad key lengths.

So even if someone actually wanted to start checking this flag (which
seems unlikely, since it's been unused for a long time), there would be
a lot of work needed to get it working correctly.  But it would probably
be much better to go back to the drawing board and just define different
return values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs.
-EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys".
That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test.

So just remove this flag.

Use subsys_initcall for registration of all templates and generic
algorithm implementations, rather than module_init.  Then change
cryptomgr to use arch_initcall, to place it before the subsys_initcalls.

This is needed so that when both a generic and optimized implementation
of an algorithm are built into the kernel (not loadable modules), the
generic implementation is registered before the optimized one.
Otherwise, the self-tests for the optimized implementation are unable to
allocate the generic implementation for the new comparison fuzz tests.

Note that on arm, a side effect of this change is that self-tests for
generic implementations may run before the unaligned access handler has
been installed.  So, unaligned accesses will crash the kernel.  This is
arguably a good thing as it makes it easier to detect that type of bug.

The __crc32_le() wrapper function is pointless.  Just call crc32_le()
directly instead.
