Pull crypto library fixes from Eric Biggers:

 - Disable the "padlock" SHA-1 and SHA-256 driver on Zhaoxin
   processors, since it does not compute hash values correctly

 - Make a generated file be removed by 'make clean'

 - Fix excessive stack usage in some of the arm64 AES code

* tag 'libcrypto-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux:

For Zhaoxin processors, the XSHA1 instruction requires the total memory
allocated at %rdi register must be 32 bytes, while the XSHA1 and
XSHA256 instruction doesn't perform any operation when %ecx is zero.

Due to these requirements, the current padlock-sha driver does not work
correctly with Zhaoxin processors. It cannot pass the self-tests and
therefore does not activate the driver on Zhaoxin processors. This issue
has been reported in Debian [1]. The self-tests fail with the
following messages [2]:

alg: shash: sha1-padlock-nano test failed (wrong result) on test vector 0, cfg="init+update+final aligned buffer"
alg: self-tests for sha1 using sha1-padlock-nano failed (rc=-22)

alg: shash: sha256-padlock-nano test failed (wrong result) on test vector 0, cfg="init+update+final aligned buffer"
alg: self-tests for sha256 using sha256-padlock-nano failed (rc=-22)

Disable the padlock-sha driver on Zhaoxin processors with the CPU family
0x07 and newer. Following the suggestion in [3], support for PHE will be
added to lib/crypto/ instead.

<title>crypto: ccp - Fix leaking the same page twice</title>

Commit 551120148b67 ("crypto: ccp - Fix a case where SNP_SHUTDOWN is
missed") fixed a case where SNP is left in INIT state if page reclaim
fails. It removes the transition to the INIT state for this command and
adjusts the page state management.

While doing this, it added a call to snp_leak_pages() after a call to
snp_reclaim_pages() failed. Since snp_reclaim_pages() already calls
snp_leak_pages() internally on the pages it fails to reclaim, calling
it again leaks the exact same page twice.

Fix by removing the extra call to snp_leak_pages().

The problem was found by an experimental code review agent based on
gemini-3.1-pro while reviewing backports into v6.18.y.

In the error path of sev_tsm_init_locked(), the code dereferences 't'
after it has been freed with kfree(). The pr_err() statement attempts
to access t-&gt;tio_en and t-&gt;tio_init_done after the memory has been
released.

Move the pr_err() call before kfree(t) to access the fields while the
memory is still valid.

When SEV is disabled, the HV-Fixed page allocation call fails, which in
turn causes SFS initialization to fail.

Fix the HV-Fixed API so callers (for example, SFS) can use it even when
SEV is disabled by performing normal page allocation and freeing.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".
