<content type='text'>
This reverts commit c4741b23059794bd99beef0f700103b0d983b3fd.

Crypto API self-tests no longer run at registration time and now
occur either at late_initcall or upon the first use.

Therefore the premise of the above commit no longer exists.  Revert
it and subsequent additions of subsys_initcall and arch_initcall.

Note that lib/crypto calls will stay at subsys_initcall (or rather
downgraded from arch_initcall) because they may need to occur
before Crypto API registration.

<title>crypto: cryptd - Only access common skcipher fields on spawn</title>

As skcipher spawns may be of the type lskcipher, only the common
fields may be accessed.  This was already the case but use the
correct helpers to make this more obvious.

<content type='text'>
Add a new API type lskcipher designed for taking straight kernel
pointers instead of SG lists.  Its relationship to skcipher will
be analogous to that between shash and ahash.

The cryptd hash template was still using the obsolete cra_init/cra_exit
interface.  Make it use the modern ahash init_tfm/exit_tfm instead.

AEAD reuses the existing request object for its child.  This is
error-prone and unnecessary.  This patch adds a subrequest object
just like we do for skcipher and hash.

This patch also restores the original completion function as we
do for skcipher/hash.

Previously the child skcipher request was stored on the stack and
therefore needed to be zeroed.  As it is now dynamically allocated
we no longer need to do so.

<title>crypto: cryptd - Use request context instead of stack for sub-request</title>

cryptd is buggy as it tries to use sync_skcipher without going
through the proper sync_skcipher interface.  In fact it doesn't
even need sync_skcipher since it's already a proper skcipher and
can easily access the request context instead of using something
off the stack.
