The x86, arm, and arm64 asm implementations of crct10dif are very
difficult to understand partly because many of the comments, labels, and
macros are named incorrectly: the lengths mentioned are usually off by a
factor of two from the actual code. Many other things are unnecessarily
convoluted as well, e.g. there are many more fold constants than
actually needed and some aren't fully reduced.
This series therefore cleans up all these implementations to be much
more maintainable. I also made some small optimizations where I saw
opportunities, resulting in slightly better performance.
This patch cleans up the arm version.
(Also moved the constants to .rodata as suggested by Ard Biesheuvel.)

The SIMD routine ported from x86 used to have a special code path
for inputs < 16 bytes, which got lost somewhere along the way.
Instead, the current glue code aligns the input pointer to permit
the NEON routine to use special versions of the vld1 instructions
that assume 16 byte alignment, but this could result in inputs of
less than 16 bytes to be passed in. This not only fails the new
extended tests that Eric has implemented, it also results in the
code reading past the end of the input, which could potentially
result in crashes when dealing with less than 16 bytes of input
at the end of a page which is followed by an unmapped page.
So update the glue code to only invoke the NEON routine if the
input is at least 16 bytes.

This is a transliteration of the Intel algorithm implemented
using SSE and PCLMULQDQ instructions that resides in the file
arch/x86/crypto/crct10dif-pcl-asm_64.S, but simplified to only
operate on buffers that are 16 byte aligned (but of any size)
