Add a lock contention tracepoint in the queued spinlock slowpath.
Also add the __lockfunc annotation so that in_lock_functions()
works as expected.

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:
 "This is the main crypto library pull request for 6.17. The main focus
  this cycle is on reorganizing the SHA-1 and SHA-2 code, providing
  high-quality library APIs for SHA-1 and SHA-2 including HMAC support,
  and establishing conventions for lib/crypto/ going forward:

   - Migrate the SHA-1 and SHA-512 code (and also SHA-384 which shares
     most of the SHA-512 code) into lib/crypto/. This includes both the
     generic and architecture-optimized code. Greatly simplify how the
     architecture-optimized code is integrated. Add an easy-to-use
     library API for each SHA variant, including HMAC support. Finally,
     reimplement the crypto_shash support on top of the library API.

   - Apply the same reorganization to the SHA-256 code (and also SHA-224
     which shares most of the SHA-256 code). This is a somewhat smaller
     change, due to my earlier work on SHA-256. But this brings in all
     the same additional improvements that I made for SHA-1 and SHA-512.

  There are also some smaller changes:

   - Move the architecture-optimized ChaCha, Poly1305, and BLAKE2s code
     from arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/crypto/ to lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/. For
     these algorithms it's just a move, not a full reorganization yet.

   - Fix the MIPS chacha-core.S to build with the clang assembler.

   - Fix the Poly1305 functions to work in all contexts.

   - Fix a performance regression in the x86_64 Poly1305 code.

   - Clean up the x86_64 SHA-NI optimized SHA-1 assembly code.

  Note that since the new organization of the SHA code is much simpler,
  the diffstat of this pull request is negative, despite the addition of
  new fully-documented library APIs for multiple SHA and HMAC-SHA
  variants.

  These APIs will allow further simplifications across the kernel as
  users start using them instead of the old-school crypto API. (I've
  already written a lot of such conversion patches, removing over 1000
  more lines of code. But most of those will target 6.18 or later)"

Move the powerpc-optimized CRC code from arch/powerpc/lib/crc* into its
new location in lib/crc/powerpc/, 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/".

<content type='text'>
Move the contents of arch/powerpc/lib/crypto/ into lib/crypto/powerpc/.

The new code organization makes a lot more sense for how this code
actually works and is developed.  In particular, it makes it possible to
build each algorithm as a single module, with better inlining and dead
code elimination.  For a more detailed explanation, see the patchset
which did this for the CRC library code:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250607200454.73587-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/.
Also see the patchset which did this for SHA-512:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20250616014019.415791-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/

This is just a preparatory commit, which does the move to get the files
into their new location but keeps them building the same way as before.
Later commits will make the actual improvements to the way the
arch-optimized code is integrated for each algorithm.

Add a SIMD fallback path for poly1305-p10 by converting the 2^64
based hash state into a 2^44 base.  In order to ensure that the
generic fallback is actually 2^44, add ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128 to
powerpc and make poly1305-p10 depend on it.

<content type='text'>
Add explicit array bounds to the function prototypes for the parameters
that didn't already get handled by the conversion to use chacha_state:

- chacha_block_*():
  Change 'u8 *out' or 'u8 *stream' to u8 out[CHACHA_BLOCK_SIZE].

- hchacha_block_*():
  Change 'u32 *out' or 'u32 *stream' to u32 out[HCHACHA_OUT_WORDS].

- chacha_init():
  Change 'const u32 *key' to 'const u32 key[CHACHA_KEY_WORDS]'.
  Change 'const u8 *iv' to 'const u8 iv[CHACHA_IV_SIZE]'.

No functional changes.  This just makes it clear when fixed-size arrays
are expected.
