	Stop wrapping skcipher and aead algorithms with the crypto SIMD helper (crypto/simd.c). The only purpose of doing so was to work around x86 not always supporting kernel-mode FPU in softirqs. Specifically, if a hardirq interrupted a task context kernel-mode FPU section and then a softirqs were run at the end of that hardirq, those softirqs could not use kernel-mode FPU. This has now been fixed. In combination with the fact that the skcipher and aead APIs only support task and softirq contexts, these can now just use kernel-mode FPU unconditionally on x86. This simplifies the code and improves performance. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2023-01-06	crypto: x86/aria - implement aria-avx512	Taehee Yoo
	aria-avx512 implementation uses AVX512 and GFNI. It supports 64way parallel processing. So, byteslicing code is changed to support 64way parallel. And it exports some aria-avx2 functions such as encrypt() and decrypt(). AVX and AVX2 have 16 registers. They should use memory to store/load state because of lack of registers. But AVX512 supports 32 registers. So, it doesn't require store/load in the s-box layer. It means that it can reduce overhead of store/load in the s-box layer. Also code become much simpler.
