__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.
lzo_init uses __GFP_REPEAT to allocate LZO1X_MEM_COMPRESS 16K. This is
order 3 allocation request and __GFP_REPEAT is ignored for this size
as well as all <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.

This prefixes all crypto module loading with "crypto-" so we never run
the risk of exposing module auto-loading to userspace via a crypto API,
as demonstrated by Mathias Krause:

zswap allocates one LZO context per online cpu.
Using vmalloc() for small (16KB) memory areas has drawback of slowing
down /proc/vmallocinfo and /proc/meminfo reads, TLB pressure and poor
NUMA locality, as default NUMA policy at boot time is to interleave
pages :
edumazet:~# grep lzo /proc/vmallocinfo | head -4
0xffffc90006062000-0xffffc90006067000 20480 lzo_init+0x1b/0x30 pages=4 vmalloc N0=2 N1=2
0xffffc90006067000-0xffffc9000606c000 20480 lzo_init+0x1b/0x30 pages=4 vmalloc N0=2 N1=2
0xffffc9000606c000-0xffffc90006071000 20480 lzo_init+0x1b/0x30 pages=4 vmalloc N0=2 N1=2
0xffffc90006071000-0xffffc90006076000 20480 lzo_init+0x1b/0x30 pages=4 vmalloc N0=2 N1=2
This patch tries a regular kmalloc() and fallback to vmalloc in case
memory is too fragmented.

Initialization of cra_list is currently mixed, most ciphers initialize this
field and most shashes do not. Initialization however is not needed at all
since cra_list is initialized/overwritten in __crypto_register_alg() with
list_add(). Therefore perform cleanup to remove all unneeded initializations
of this field in 'crypto/'.

Thanks for the suggestion, the init() is replaced with
<algorithm name>_mod_init ()
and fini () is replaced with <algorithm name>_mod_fini.
