A lot of crypto algorithms implement their own chaining function.
So add a generic one that can be used from all the algorithms that
need scatterlist chaining.Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert

When I backed out of using the generic sg chaining (as it isn't currently
portable) and introduced scatterwalk_sg_chain/scatterwalk_sg_next I left
out the sg_is_last check in the latter. This causes it to potentially
dereference beyond the end of the sg array.As most uses of scatterwalk_sg_next are bound by an overall length, this
only affected the chaining code in authenc and eseqiv. Thanks to Patrick
McHardy for identifying this problem.This patch also clears the "last" bit on the head of the chained list as
it's no longer last. This also went missing in scatterwalk_sg_chain and
is present in sg_chain.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

As Andrew Morton correctly points out, we need to explicitly include
sched.h as we use the function cond_resched in crypto/scatterwalk.h.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

Unfortunately the generic chaining hasn't been ported to all architectures
yet, and notably not s390. So this patch restores the chainging that we've
been using previously which does work everywhere.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

The scatterwalk infrastructure is used by algorithms so it needs to
move out of crypto for future users that may live in drivers/crypto
or asm/*/crypto.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
