To avoid a crash when control flow integrity is enabled, make the
workspace ("stream") free function use a consistent type, and call it
through a function pointer that has that same type.

<content type='text'>
Convert the implementation to a native acomp interface using zstd
streaming APIs, eliminating the need for buffer linearization.

This includes:
   - Removal of the scomp interface in favor of acomp
   - Refactoring of stream allocation, initialization, and handling for
     both compression and decompression using Zstandard streaming APIs
   - Replacement of crypto_register_scomp() with crypto_register_acomp()
     for module registration

<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.

The tfm argument is completely unused and meaningless as the
same stream object is identical over all transforms of a given
algorithm.  Remove it.

<title>lib: zstd: Add kernel-specific API</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cf30f6a5f0c60ec98a637b836bef6915f602c6ab</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch:
- Moves `include/linux/zstd.h` -&gt; `include/linux/zstd_lib.h`
- Updates modified zstd headers to yearless copyright
- Adds a new API in `include/linux/zstd.h` that is functionally
  equivalent to the in-use subset of the current API. Functions are
  renamed to avoid symbol collisions with zstd, to make it clear it is
  not the upstream zstd API, and to follow the kernel style guide.
- Updates all callers to use the new API.

There are no functional changes in this patch. Since there are no
functional change, I felt it was okay to update all the callers in a
single patch. Once the API is approved, the callers are mechanically
changed.

This patch is preparing for the 3rd patch in this series, which updates
zstd to version 1.4.10. Since the upstream zstd API is no longer exposed
to callers, the update can happen transparently.

<title>mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:453431a54934d917153c65211b2dabf45562ca88</id>
<content type='text'>
As said by Linus:

  A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
  Otherwise it's actively misleading.

  In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
  caller wants.

  In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
  future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
  something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.

The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.

Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.

The renaming is done by using the command sequence:

  git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
  xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'

followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.
