ARM: 9286/1: crypto: Implement fused AES-CTR/GHASH version of GCM

On 32-bit ARM, AES in GCM mode takes full advantage of the ARMv8 Crypto
Extensions when available, resulting in a performance of 6-7 cycles per
byte for typical IPsec frames on cores such as Cortex-A53, using the
generic GCM template encapsulating the accelerated AES-CTR and GHASH
implementations.

At such high rates, any time spent copying data or doing other poorly
optimized work in the generic layer hurts disproportionately, and we can
get a significant performance improvement by combining the optimized
AES-CTR and GHASH implementations into a single GCM driver.

On Cortex-A53, this results in a performance improvement of around 75%,
and AES-256-GCM-128 with RFC4106 encapsulation runs in 4 cycles per
byte.

Note that this code takes advantage of the fact that kernel mode NEON is
now supported in softirq context as well, and therefore does not provide
a non-NEON fallback path at all. (AEADs are only callable in process or
softirq context)
