Subject: lib/crypto: arm64/gf128hash: Remove obsolete chunking logic
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d3a5cc5c9237cd6ffd1f84c1af306e315cf0cf3d;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

lib/crypto: arm64/gf128hash: Remove obsolete chunking logic

Since commit aefbab8e77eb ("arm64: fpsimd: Preserve/restore kernel mode
NEON at context switch"), kernel-mode NEON sections have been
preemptible on arm64.  And since commit 7dadeaa6e851 ("sched: Further
restrict the preemption modes"), voluntary preemption is no longer
supported on arm64 either.  Therefore, there's no longer any need to
limit the length of kernel-mode NEON sections on arm64.

Simplify the GHASH and POLYVAL code accordingly.
