Speed up the GHASH algorithm based on 64-bit polynomial multiplication
by adding support for 4-way aggregation. This improves throughput by
~85% on Cortex-A53, from 1.7 cycles per byte to 0.9 cycles per byte.
When combined with AES into GCM, throughput improves by ~25%, from
3.8 cycles per byte to 3.0 cycles per byte.

Some ahash algorithms set .cra_type = &crypto_ahash_type. But this is
redundant with the C structure type ('struct ahash_alg'), and
crypto_register_ahash() already sets the .cra_type automatically.
Apparently the useless assignment has just been copy+pasted around.
So, remove the useless assignment from all the ahash algorithms.
This patch shouldn't change any actual behavior.

Many ahash algorithms set .cra_flags = CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_AHASH. But this
is redundant with the C structure type ('struct ahash_alg'), and
crypto_register_ahash() already sets the type flag automatically,
clearing any type flag that was already there. Apparently the useless
assignment has just been copy+pasted around.

Implement a NEON fallback for systems that do support NEON but have
no support for the optional 64x64->128 polynomial multiplication
instruction that is part of the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions. It is based
on the paper "Fast Software Polynomial Multiplication on ARM Processors
Using the NEON Engine" by Danilo Camara, Conrado Gouvea, Julio Lopez and
Ricardo Dahab (https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01506572)
On a 32-bit guest executing under KVM on a Cortex-A57, the new code is
not only 4x faster than the generic table based GHASH driver, it is also
time invariant. (Note that the existing vmull.p64 code is 16x faster on
this core).

Make the module autoloadable by tying it to the CPU feature bit that
describes whether the optional instructions it relies on are implemented
by the current CPU.

The fact that the internal synchrous hash implementation is called
"ghash" like the publicly visible one is causing the testmgr code
to misidentify it as an algorithm that requires testing at boottime.
So rename it to "__ghash" to prevent this.

Since commit 8996eafdcb ("crypto: ahash - ensure statesize is non-zero"),
all ahash drivers are required to implement import()/export(), and must have
a non-zero statesize. Fix this for the ARM Crypto Extensions GHASH
implementation.

This patch fixes an old bug where requests can be reordered because
some are processed by cryptd while others are processed directly
in softirq context.
The fix is to always postpone to cryptd if there are currently
requests outstanding from the same tfm.
This patch also removes the redundant use of cryptd in the async
init function as init never touches the FPU.

This implements the GHASH hash algorithm (as used by the GCM AEAD
chaining mode) using the AArch32 version of the 64x64 to 128 bit
polynomial multiplication instruction (vmull.p64) that is part of
the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions.
