powerpc/crypto: add 842 crypto driver This patch add the 842 cryptographic API driver that submits compression requests to the 842 hardware compression accelerator driver (nx-compress). If the hardware accelerator goes offline for any reason (dynamic disable, migration, etc...), this driver will use LZO as a software failover for all future compression requests. For decompression requests, the 842 hardware driver contains a software implementation of the 842 decompressor to support the decompression of data that was compressed before the accelerator went offline.

crypto: 842 - change 842 alg to use software Change the crypto 842 compression alg to use the software 842 compression and decompression library. Add the crypto driver_name as "842-generic". Remove the fallback to LZO compression. Previously, this crypto compression alg attemped 842 compression using PowerPC hardware, and fell back to LZO compression and decompression if the 842 PowerPC hardware was unavailable or failed. This should not fall back to any other compression method, however; users of this crypto compression alg can fallback if desired, and transparent fallback tricks callers into thinking they are getting 842 compression when they actually get LZO compression - the failure of the 842 hardware should not be transparent to the caller. The crypto compression alg for a hardware device also should not be located in crypto/ so this is now a software-only implementation that uses the 842 software compression/decompression library.

powerpc/crypto: add 842 crypto driver This patch add the 842 cryptographic API driver that submits compression requests to the 842 hardware compression accelerator driver (nx-compress). If the hardware accelerator goes offline for any reason (dynamic disable, migration, etc...), this driver will use LZO as a software failover for all future compression requests. For decompression requests, the 842 hardware driver contains a software implementation of the 842 decompressor to support the decompression of data that was compressed before the accelerator went offline.

crypto: 842 - change 842 alg to use software Change the crypto 842 compression alg to use the software 842 compression and decompression library. Add the crypto driver_name as "842-generic". Remove the fallback to LZO compression. Previously, this crypto compression alg attemped 842 compression using PowerPC hardware, and fell back to LZO compression and decompression if the 842 PowerPC hardware was unavailable or failed. This should not fall back to any other compression method, however; users of this crypto compression alg can fallback if desired, and transparent fallback tricks callers into thinking they are getting 842 compression when they actually get LZO compression - the failure of the 842 hardware should not be transparent to the caller. The crypto compression alg for a hardware device also should not be located in crypto/ so this is now a software-only implementation that uses the 842 software compression/decompression library.
