Merge tag 'libcrypto-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:

 - Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures.

   ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is a
   recently-standardized post-quantum (quantum-resistant) signature
   algorithm. It was known as Dilithium pre-standardization.

   The first use case in the kernel will be module signing. But there
   are also other users of RSA and ECDSA signatures in the kernel that
   might want to upgrade to ML-DSA eventually.

 - Improve the AES library:

     - Make the AES key expansion and single block encryption and
       decryption functions use the architecture-optimized AES code.
       Enable these optimizations by default.

     - Support preparing an AES key for encryption-only, using about
       half as much memory as a bidirectional key.

     - Replace the existing two generic implementations of AES with a
       single one.

 - Simplify how Adiantum message hashing is implemented. Remove the
   "nhpoly1305" crypto_shash in favor of direct lib/crypto/ support for
   NH hashing, and enable optimizations by default.
