Some broken references happened due to shifting files around
and ReST renames. Those can't be auto-fixed by the script,
so let's fix them manually.

The function “platform_get_irq” can log an error already.
Thus omit a redundant message for the exception handling in the
calling function.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

<title>crypto: remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN</title>
<updated>2020-01-09T03:30:53+00:00</updated>

<name>Eric Biggers</name>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=674f368a952c48ede71784935a799a5205b92b6c'/>
<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.
