Eric Biggers 99680c5e91 crypto: arm - convert to use crypto_simd_usable()
Replace all calls to may_use_simd() in the arm crypto code with
crypto_simd_usable(), in order to allow testing the no-SIMD code paths.

Eric Biggers bdb063a79f crypto: arm/chacha - add XChaCha12 support
Now that the 32-bit ARM NEON implementation of ChaCha20 and XChaCha20
has been refactored to support varying the number of rounds, add support
for XChaCha12.  This is identical to XChaCha20 except for the number of
rounds, which is 12 instead of 20.

XChaCha12 is faster than XChaCha20 but has a lower security margin,
though still greater than AES-256's since the best known attacks make it
through only 7 rounds.  See the patch "crypto: chacha - add XChaCha12
support" for more details about why we need XChaCha12 support.

In preparation for adding XChaCha12 support, rename/refactor the NEON
implementation of ChaCha20 to support different numbers of rounds.
