This code is unlikely to be useful in the future because transforms
don't know how often keys will be changed, new algorithms are unlikely
to use lle representation, and tables should be replaced with
carryless multiplication instructions when available.

Use the new API to create and destroy the crypto engine kthread
worker. The API hides some implementation details.
In particular, kthread_create_worker() allocates and initializes
struct kthread_worker. It runs the kthread the right way
and stores task_struct into the worker structure.
kthread_destroy_worker() flushes all pending works, stops
the kthread and frees the structure.
This patch does not change the existing behavior except for
dynamically allocating struct kthread_worker and storing
only the pointer of this structure.
It is compile tested only because I did not find an easy
way how to run the code. Well, it should be pretty safe
given the nature of the change.

A good practice is to prefix the names of functions by the name
of the subsystem.
The kthread worker API is a mix of classic kthreads and workqueues. Each
worker has a dedicated kthread. It runs a generic function that process
queued works. It is implemented as part of the kthread subsystem.
This patch renames the existing kthread worker API to use
the corresponding name from the workqueues API prefixed by
kthread_:
__init_kthread_worker() -> __kthread_init_worker()
init_kthread_worker() -> kthread_init_worker()
init_kthread_work() -> kthread_init_work()
insert_kthread_work() -> kthread_insert_work()
queue_kthread_work() -> kthread_queue_work()
flush_kthread_work() -> kthread_flush_work()
flush_kthread_worker() -> kthread_flush_worker()
Note that the names of DEFINE_KTHREAD_WORK*() macros stay
as they are. It is common that the "DEFINE_" prefix has
precedence over the subsystem names.
Note that INIT() macros and init() functions use different
naming scheme. There is no good solution. There are several
reasons for this solution:
+ "init" in the function names stands for the verb "initialize"
aka "initialize worker". While "INIT" in the macro names
stands for the noun "INITIALIZER" aka "worker initializer".
+ INIT() macros are used only in DEFINE() macros
+ init() functions are used close to the other kthread()
functions. It looks much better if all the functions
use the same scheme.
+ There will be also kthread_destroy_worker() that will
be used close to kthread_cancel_work(). It is related
to the init() function. Again it looks better if all
functions use the same naming scheme.
+ there are several precedents for such init() function
names, e.g. amd_iommu_init_device(), free_area_init_node(),
jump_label_init_type(), regmap_init_mmio_clk(),
+ It is not an argument but it was inconsistent even before.

The cipher block size for GCM is 16 bytes, and thus the CTR transform
