c288178954 crypto: shash - allow essiv and hmac to use OPTIONAL_KEY algorithms
The essiv and hmac templates refuse to use any hash algorithm that has a
->setkey() function, which includes not just algorithms that always need
a key, but also algorithms that optionally take a key.

Previously the only optionally-keyed hash algorithms in the crypto API
were non-cryptographic algorithms like crc32, so this didn't really
matter.  But that's changed with BLAKE2 support being added.  BLAKE2
should work with essiv and hmac, just like any other cryptographic hash.

Fix this by allowing the use of both algorithms without a ->setkey()
function and algorithms that have the OPTIONAL_KEY flag set.

e18036da5c crypto: essiv - remove redundant null pointer check before kfree
kfree has taken null pointer check into account. so it is safe to
remove the unnecessary check.

c65058b758 crypto: skcipher - remove the "blkcipher" algorithm type
Now that all "blkcipher" algorithms have been converted to "skcipher",
remove the blkcipher algorithm type.

The skcipher (symmetric key cipher) algorithm type was introduced a few
years ago to replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher (synchronous and
asynchronous block cipher).  The advantages of skcipher include:

  - A much less confusing name, since none of these algorithm types have
    ever actually been for raw block ciphers, but rather for all
    length-preserving encryption modes including block cipher modes of
    operation, stream ciphers, and other length-preserving modes.

  - It unified blkcipher and ablkcipher into a single algorithm type
    which supports both synchronous and asynchronous implementations.
    Note, blkcipher already operated only on scatterlists, so the fact
    that skcipher does too isn't a regression in functionality.

  - Better type safety by using struct skcipher_alg, struct
    crypto_skcipher, etc. instead of crypto_alg, crypto_tfm, etc.

  - It sometimes simplifies the implementations of algorithms.

Also, the blkcipher API was no longer being tested.

be1eb7f78a crypto: essiv - create wrapper template for ESSIV generation
Implement a template that wraps a (skcipher,shash) or (aead,shash) tuple
so that we can consolidate the ESSIV handling in fscrypt and dm-crypt and
move it into the crypto API. This will result in better test coverage, and
will allow future changes to make the bare cipher interface internal to the
crypto subsystem, in order to increase robustness of the API against misuse.
