bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

e49a3eac92 lib/crypto: Explicitly include <linux/export.h>
Fix build warnings with W=1 that started appearing after
commit a934a57a42 ("scripts/misc-check: check missing #include
<linux/export.h> when W=1").

While at it, also sort the include lists alphabetically.  (Keep
asm/irqflags.h last, as otherwise it doesn't build on alpha.)

This handles all of lib/crypto/, but not arch/*/lib/crypto/.  The
exports in arch/*/lib/crypto/ will go away when the code is properly
integrated into lib/crypto/ as planned.

b9b894642f crypto: lib/gf128mul - Remove some bbe deadcode
gf128mul_4k_bbe(), gf128mul_bbe() and gf128mul_init_4k_bbe()
are part of the library originally added in 2006 by
commit c494e0705d ("[CRYPTO] lib: table driven multiplications in
GF(2^128)")

but have never been used.

Remove them.
(BBE is Big endian Byte/Big endian bits
Note the 64k table version is used and I've left that in)

b67ce439fe crypto: lib/gf128mul - make gf128mul_lle time invariant
The gf128mul library has different variants with different
memory/performance tradeoffs, where the faster ones use 4k or 64k lookup
tables precomputed at runtime, which are based on one of the
multiplication factors, which is commonly the key for keyed hash
algorithms such as GHASH.

The slowest variant is gf128_mul_lle() [and its bbe/ble counterparts],
which does not use precomputed lookup tables, but it still relies on a
single u16[256] lookup table which is input independent. The use of such
a table may cause the execution time of gf128_mul_lle() to correlate
with the value of the inputs, which is generally something that must be
avoided for cryptographic algorithms. On top of that, the function uses
a sequence of if () statements that conditionally invoke be128_xor()
based on which bits are set in the second argument of the function,
which is usually a pointer to the multiplication factor that represents
the key.

In order to remove the correlation between the execution time of
gf128_mul_lle() and the value of its inputs, let's address the
identified shortcomings:
- add a time invariant version of gf128mul_x8_lle() that replaces the
  table lookup with the expression that is used at compile time to
  populate the lookup table;
- make the invocations of be128_xor() unconditional, but pass a zero
  vector as the third argument if the associated bit in the key is
  cleared.

The resulting code is likely to be significantly slower. However, given
that this is the slowest version already, making it even slower in order
to make it more secure is assumed to be justified.

The bbe and ble counterparts could receive the same treatment, but the
former is never used anywhere in the kernel, and the latter is only
used in the driver for a asynchronous crypto h/w accelerator (Chelsio),
where timing variances are unlikely to matter.

61c581a46a crypto: move gf128mul library into lib/crypto
The gf128mul library does not depend on the crypto API at all, so it can
be moved into lib/crypto. This will allow us to use it in other library
code in a subsequent patch without having to depend on CONFIG_CRYPTO.

While at it, change the Kconfig symbol name to align with other crypto
library implementations. However, the source file name is retained, as
it is reflected in the module .ko filename, and changing this might
break things for users.
