a208fa8f33 crypto: hash - annotate algorithms taking optional key
We need to consistently enforce that keyed hashes cannot be used without
setting the key.  To do this we need a reliable way to determine whether
a given hash algorithm is keyed or not.  AF_ALG currently does this by
checking for the presence of a ->setkey() method.  However, this is
actually slightly broken because the CRC-32 algorithms implement
->setkey() but can also be used without a key.  (The CRC-32 "key" is not
actually a cryptographic key but rather represents the initial state.
If not overridden, then a default initial state is used.)

Prepare to fix this by introducing a flag CRYPTO_ALG_OPTIONAL_KEY which
indicates that the algorithm has a ->setkey() method, but it is not
required to be called.  Then set it on all the CRC-32 algorithms.

The same also applies to the Adler-32 implementation in Lustre.

Also, the cryptd and mcryptd templates have to pass through the flag
from their underlying algorithm.

a7c58ac062 crypto: crc32 - Rename generic implementation
The generic crc32 implementation is currently called crc32.  This
is a problem because it clashes with the lib implementation of crc32.

This patch renames the crypto crc32 to crc32_generic so that it is
consistent with crc32c.  An alias for the driver is also added.
