<title>crypto: run initcalls for generic implementations earlier</title>

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.

<title>crypto: null - Remove VLA usage of skcipher</title>

In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
replaces struct crypto_skcipher and SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK() usage
with struct crypto_sync_skcipher and SYNC_SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK(),
which uses a fixed stack size.

<title>crypto: shash - remove useless setting of type flags</title>

<content type='text'>
Many shash algorithms set .cra_flags = CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_SHASH.  But this
is redundant with the C structure type ('struct shash_alg'), and
crypto_register_shash() already sets the type flag automatically,
clearing any type flag that was already there.  Apparently the useless
assignment has just been copy+pasted around.

So, remove the useless assignment from all the shash algorithms.

This patch shouldn't change any actual behavior.

Current the default null skcipher is actually a crypto_blkcipher.
This patch creates a synchronous crypto_skcipher version of the
null cipher which unfortunately has to settle for the name skcipher2.

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,
