Now that the blkcipher algorithm type has been removed in favor of
skcipher, rename the crypto_blkcipher kernel module to crypto_skcipher,
and rename the config options accordingly:

	CONFIG_CRYPTO_BLKCIPHER =&gt; CONFIG_CRYPTO_SKCIPHER
	CONFIG_CRYPTO_BLKCIPHER2 =&gt; CONFIG_CRYPTO_SKCIPHER2

<title>bluetooth: switch to AES library</title>

The bluetooth code uses a bare AES cipher for the encryption operations.
Given that it carries out a set_key() operation right before every
encryption operation, this is clearly not a hot path, and so the use of
the cipher interface (which provides the best implementation available
on the system) is not really required.

In fact, when using a cipher like AES-NI or AES-CE, both the set_key()
and the encrypt() operations involve en/disabling preemption as well as
stacking and unstacking the SIMD context, and this is most certainly
not worth it for encrypting 16 bytes of data.

So let's switch to the new lightweight library interface instead.

<title>Revert "Bluetooth: Add option for disabling legacy ioctl interfaces"</title>

<content type='text'>
This reverts commit dbbccdc4ced015cdd4051299bd87fbe0254ad351.

It turns out that the "legacy" users aren't so legacy at all, and that
turning off the legacy ioctl will break the current Qt bluetooth stack
for bluetooth LE devices that were released just a couple of months ago.

So it's simply not true that this was a legacy interface that hasn't
been needed and is only limited to old legacy BT devices.  Because I
actually read Kconfig help messages, and actively try to turn off
features that I don't need, I turned the option off.

Then I spent _way_ too much time debugging BLE issues until I realized
that it wasn't the Qt and subsurface development that had broken one of
my dive computer BLE downloads, but simply my broken kernel config.

Maybe in a decade it will be true that this is a legacy interface.  And
maybe with a better help-text and correct dependencies, this kind of
legacy removal might be acceptable.  But as things are right now both
the commit message and the Kconfig help text were misleading, and the
Kconfig option had the wrong dependenencies.

There's no reason to keep that broken Kconfig option in the tree.

The legacy ioctl interfaces are only useful for BR/EDR operation and
since Linux 3.4 no longer needed anyway. This options allows disabling
them alltogether and use only management interfaces for setup and
control.

* Convert both smp and selftest to crypto kpp API
* Remove module ecc as no more required
* Add ecdh_helper functions for wrapping kpp async calls

This patch has been tested *only* with selftest, which is called on
module loading.

For backwards compatibility with existing kernel configuration,
