658a7ab8f2 Module-ize the 'core' crypto stuff. This may still need to be compiled
into the kernel by default (if required), but other modules can now
depend() on this.

Fix inter-module dependancy.

8630abe45f Change iov_base's type from char *' to the standard void *'. All
uses of iov_base which assume its type is `char *' (in order to do
pointer arithmetic) have been updated to cast iov_base to `char *'.

a2b3941432 o split crypto_proc into two threads: one for processing requests and one
for processing callbacks.  This closes race conditions caused by locking
  too many things with a single mutex.
o reclaim crypto requests under certain (impossible) failure conditions

91416784e4 In-kernel crypto framework derived from openbsd. This facility provides
a consistent interface to h/w and s/w crypto algorithms for use by the
kernel and (for h/w at least) by user-mode apps.  Access for user-level
code is through a /dev/crypto device that'll eventually be used by openssl
to (potentially) accelerate many applications.  Coming soon is an IPsec
that makes use of this service to accelerate ESP, AH, and IPCOMP protocols.

Included here is the "core" crypto support, /dev/crypto driver, various
crypto algorithms that are not already present in the KAME crypto area,
and support routines used by crypto device drivers.
