	Consolidate the ChaCha code into a single module (excluding chacha-block-generic.c which remains always built-in for random.c), similar to various other algorithms: - Each arch now provides a header file lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/chacha.h, replacing lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/chacha*.c. The header defines chacha_crypt_arch() and hchacha_block_arch(). It is included by lib/crypto/chacha.c, and thus the code gets built into the single libchacha module, with improved inlining in some cases. - Whether arch-optimized ChaCha is buildable is now controlled centrally by lib/crypto/Kconfig instead of by lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/Kconfig. The conditions for enabling it remain the same as before, and it remains enabled by default. - Any additional arch-specific translation units for the optimized ChaCha code, such as assembly files, are now compiled by lib/crypto/Makefile instead of lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile. This removes the last use for the Makefile and Kconfig files in the arm64, mips, powerpc, riscv, and s390 subdirectories of lib/crypto/. So also remove those files and the references to them.

	chacha_is_arch_optimized() is no longer used, so remove it. Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250827151131.27733-4-ebiggers@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@kernel.org>
2025-06-30	lib/crypto: mips: Move arch/mips/lib/crypto/ into lib/crypto/	Eric Biggers
	Move the contents of arch/mips/lib/crypto/ into lib/crypto/mips/. 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 gitignore entry for the removed directory arch/mips/lib/crypto/ so that people don't accidentally commit leftover generated files.
