Consolidate the ChaCha code into a single module (excluding chacha-block-generic.c which remains always built-in for random.c), similar to various other algorithms: - Each arch now provides a header file lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/chacha.h, replacing lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/chacha*.c. The header defines chacha_crypt_arch() and hchacha_block_arch(). It is included by lib/crypto/chacha.c, and thus the code gets built into the single libchacha module, with improved inlining in some cases. - Whether arch-optimized ChaCha is buildable is now controlled centrally by lib/crypto/Kconfig instead of by lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/Kconfig. The conditions for enabling it remain the same as before, and it remains enabled by default. - Any additional arch-specific translation units for the optimized ChaCha code, such as assembly files, are now compiled by lib/crypto/Makefile instead of lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile. This removes the last use for the Makefile and Kconfig files in the arm64, mips, powerpc, riscv, and s390 subdirectories of lib/crypto/. So also remove those files and the references to them.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
