<id>urn:sha1:ef93f1562803cd7bb8159e3abedaf7f47dce4e35</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit c4741b23059794bd99beef0f700103b0d983b3fd.

Crypto API self-tests no longer run at registration time and now
occur either at late_initcall or upon the first use.

Therefore the premise of the above commit no longer exists.  Revert
it and subsequent additions of subsys_initcall and arch_initcall.

Note that lib/crypto calls will stay at subsys_initcall (or rather
downgraded from arch_initcall) because they may need to occur
before Crypto API registration.

<title>crypto: skcipher - Make skcipher_walk src.virt.addr const</title>

<content type='text'>
Mark the src.virt.addr field in struct skcipher_walk as a pointer
to const data.  This guarantees that the user won't modify the data
which should be done through dst.virt.addr to ensure that flushing
is done when necessary.

<title>module: Convert symbol namespace to string literal</title>

<content type='text'>
Clean up the existing export namespace code along the same lines of
commit 33def8498fdd ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of __section(foo)
to __section("foo")") and for the same reason, it is not desired for the
namespace argument to be a macro expansion itself.

<title>crypto: xctr - Add XCTR support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:17fee07a2ac577da18b44dd658a9c3c864281c49</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a generic implementation of XCTR mode as a template.  XCTR is a
blockcipher mode similar to CTR mode.  XCTR uses XORs and little-endian
addition rather than big-endian arithmetic which has two advantages:  It
is slightly faster on little-endian CPUs and it is less likely to be
implemented incorrect since integer overflows are not possible on
practical input sizes.  XCTR is used as a component to implement HCTR2.

More information on XCTR mode can be found in the HCTR2 paper:
