Tweak the NEON intrinsics crc64 code written for arm64 so it can be
built for 32-bit ARM as well. The only workaround needed is to provide
alternatives for vmull_p64() and vmull_high_p64() on Clang, which only
defines those when building for the AArch64 or arm64ec ISA. Use the same
helpers for GCC too, to avoid doubling the size of the test/validation
matrix.

Don't bother with big-endian, as it doesn't work correctly on Clang, and
is barely used these days.
Note that ARM disables preemption and softirq processing when using
kernel mode SIMD, so take care not to hog the CPU for too long.

Before modifying the prototypes of kernel_neon_begin() and
kernel_neon_end() to accommodate kernel mode FP/SIMD state buffers
allocated on the stack, move arm64 to the new 'ksimd' scoped guard API,
which encapsulates the calls to those functions.
For symmetry, do the same for 32-bit ARM too.

Drop 'inline' from all the *_mod_init_arch() functions so that the
compiler will warn about any bugs where they are unused due to not being
wired up properly. (There are no such bugs currently, so this just
establishes a more robust convention for the future. Of course, these
functions also tend to get inlined anyway, regardless of the keyword.)

Since crc_kunit now tests the fallback code paths without using
crypto_simd_disabled_for_test, make the CRC code just use the underlying
may_use_simd() and irq_fpu_usable() functions directly instead of
crypto_simd_usable(). This eliminates an unnecessary layer.
Take the opportunity to add likely() and unlikely() annotations as well.

Move the arm-optimized CRC code from arch/arm/lib/crc* into its new
location in lib/crc/arm/, and wire it up in the new way. This new way
of organizing the CRC code eliminates the need to artificially split the
code for each CRC variant into separate arch and generic modules,
enabling better inlining and dead code elimination. For more details,
see "lib/crc: Prepare for arch-optimized code in subdirs of lib/crc/".
