crypto: chacha - move existing library code into lib/crypto Currently, our generic ChaCha implementation consists of a permute function in lib/chacha.c that operates on the 64-byte ChaCha state directly [and which is always included into the core kernel since it is used by the /dev/random driver], and the crypto API plumbing to expose it as a skcipher. In order to support in-kernel users that need the ChaCha streamcipher but have no need [or tolerance] for going through the abstractions of the crypto API, let's expose the streamcipher bits via a library API as well, in a way that permits the implementation to be superseded by an architecture specific one if provided. So move the streamcipher code into a separate module in lib/crypto, and expose the init() and crypt() routines to users of the library.
