1b8623545b [PATCH] remove bogus asm/bug.h includes.
A bunch of asm/bug.h includes are both not needed (since it will get
pulled anyway) and bogus (since they are done too early).  Removed.

c774e93e21 [CRYPTO] Add plumbing for multi-block operations
The VIA Padlock device is able to perform much better when multiple
blocks are fed to it at once.  As this device offers an exceptional
throughput rate it is worthwhile to optimise the infrastructure
specifically for it.

We shift the existing page-sized fast path down to the CBC/ECB functions.
We can then replace the CBC/ECB functions with functions provided by the
underlying algorithm that performs the multi-block operations.

As a side-effect this improves the performance of large cipher operations
for all existing algorithm implementations.  I've measured the gain to be
around 5% for 3DES and 15% for AES.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
