[PATCH 0/7] sha1 library cleanup

<linux/cryptohash.h> sounds very generic and important, like it's the
header to include if you're doing cryptographic hashing in the kernel.
But actually it only includes the library implementation of the SHA-1
compression function (not even the full SHA-1). This should basically
never be used anymore; SHA-1 is no longer considered secure, and there
are much better ways to do cryptographic hashing in the kernel.
Also the function is named just "sha_transform()", which makes it
unclear which version of SHA is meant.
Therefore, this series cleans things up by moving these SHA-1
declarations into <crypto/sha.h> where they better belong, and changing
the names to say SHA-1 rather than just SHA.
As future work, we should split sha.h into sha1.h and sha2.h and try to
remove the remaining uses of SHA-1. For example, the remaining use in
drivers/char/random.c is probably one that can be gotten rid of.
This patch series applies to cryptodev/master.
Eric Biggers (7):
mptcp: use SHA256_BLOCK_SIZE, not SHA_MESSAGE_BYTES
crypto: powerpc/sha1 - remove unused temporary workspace
crypto: powerpc/sha1 - prefix the "sha1_" functions
crypto: s390/sha1 - prefix the "sha1_" functions
crypto: lib/sha1 - rename "sha" to "sha1"
crypto: lib/sha1 - remove unnecessary includes of linux/cryptohash.h
crypto: lib/sha1 - fold linux/cryptohash.h into crypto/sha.h
