Gideon Israel Dsouza d8c34b949d crypto: Replaced gcc specific attributes with macros from compiler.h
Continuing from this commit: 52f5684c8e
("kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))")

I submitted 4 total patches. They are part of task I've taken up to
increase compiler portability in the kernel. I've cleaned up the
subsystems under /kernel /mm /block and /security, this patch targets
/crypto.

There is <linux/compiler.h> which provides macros for various gcc specific
constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've cleaned all
instances of gcc specific attributes with the right macros for the crypto
subsystem.

I had to make one additional change into compiler-gcc.h for the case when
one wants to use this: __attribute__((aligned) and not specify an alignment
factor. From the gcc docs, this will result in the largest alignment for
that data type on the target machine so I've named the macro
__aligned_largest. Please advise if another name is more appropriate.

Salvatore Benedetto 4e5f2c4007 crypto: kpp - Key-agreement Protocol Primitives API (KPP)
Add key-agreement protocol primitives (kpp) API which allows to
implement primitives required by protocols such as DH and ECDH.
The API is composed mainly by the following functions
 * set_secret() - It allows the user to set his secret, also
   referred to as his private key, along with the parameters
   known to both parties involved in the key-agreement session.
 * generate_public_key() - It generates the public key to be sent to
   the other counterpart involved in the key-agreement session. The
   function has to be called after set_params() and set_secret()
 * generate_secret() - It generates the shared secret for the session

Other functions such as init() and exit() are provided for allowing
cryptographic hardware to be inizialized properly before use
