	Move the arm64-optimized CRC code from arch/arm64/lib/crc* into its new location in lib/crc/arm64/, 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/". Reviewed-by: "Martin K.

2024-12-01	arm64/crc-t10dif: expose CRC-T10DIF function through lib	Eric Biggers
	Move the arm64 CRC-T10DIF assembly code into the lib directory and wire it up to the library interface. This allows it to be used without going through the crypto API. It remains usable via the crypto API too via the shash algorithms that use the library interface. Thus all the arch-specific "shash" code becomes unnecessary and is removed. Note: to see the diff from arch/arm64/crypto/crct10dif-ce-glue.c to arch/arm64/lib/crc-t10dif-glue.c, view this commit with 'git show -M10'.
