crypto: nx - fix incorrect kernel-doc comment syntax in files

The opening comment mark '/**' is used for highlighting the beginning of
kernel-doc comments.
There are certain files in drivers/crypto/nx, which follow this syntax,
but the content inside does not comply with kernel-doc.
Such lines were probably not meant for kernel-doc parsing, but are parsed
due to the presence of kernel-doc like comment syntax(i.e, '/**'), which
causes unexpected warnings from kernel-doc.

E.g., presence of kernel-doc like comment in the header lines for
drivers/crypto/nx/nx-sha256.c at header causes these warnings:
"warning: Function parameter or member 'tfm' not described in 'nx_crypto_ctx_sha256_init'"
"warning: expecting prototype for SHA(). Prototype was for nx_crypto_ctx_sha256_init() instead"

Similarly for other files too.

Provide a simple fix by replacing such occurrences with general comment
format, i.e. '/*', to prevent kernel-doc from parsing it.

# 75f22228 14-Apr-2019 Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

crypto: nx - don't abuse shash MAY_SLEEP flag

The nx driver uses the MAY_SLEEP flag in shash_desc::flags as an
indicator to not retry sending the operation to the hardware as many
times before returning -EBUSY. This is bogus because (1) that's not
what the MAY_SLEEP flag is for, and (2) the shash API doesn't allow
failing if the hardware is busy anyway.

For now, just make it always retry the larger number of times. This
doesn't actually fix this driver, but it at least makes it not use the
shash_desc::flags field anymore. Then this field can be removed, as no
other drivers use it.

crypto: shash - remove useless setting of type flags

Many shash algorithms set .cra_flags = CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_SHASH. But this
is redundant with the C structure type ('struct shash_alg'), and
crypto_register_shash() already sets the type flag automatically,
clearing any type flag that was already there. Apparently the useless
assignment has just been copy+pasted around.

So, remove the useless assignment from all the shash algorithms.

This patch shouldn't change any actual behavior.

crypto: nx - Fix reentrancy bugs

This patch fixes a host of reentrancy bugs in the nx driver. The
following algorithms are affected:

* CCM
* GCM
* CTR
* XCBC
* SHA256
* SHA512

The crypto API allows a single transform to be used by multiple
threads simultaneously. For example, IPsec will use a single tfm
to process packets for a given SA. As packets may arrive on
multiple CPUs that tfm must be reentrant.

The nx driver does try to deal with this by using a spin lock.
Unfortunately only the basic AES/CBC/ECB algorithms do this in
the correct way.

The symptom of these bugs may range from the generation of incorrect
output to memory corruption.

crypto: nx - Moving NX-AES-XCBC to be processed logic

The previous limits were estimated locally in a single step
basead on bound values, however it was not correct since
when given certain scatterlist the function nx_build_sg_lists
was consuming more sg entries than allocated causing a
memory corruption and crashes.

This patch removes the old logic and replaces it into nx_sg_build_lists
in order to build a correct nx_sg list using the correct sg_max limit
and bounds.

crypto: nx - fix XCBC for zero length messages

The NX XCBC implementation doesn't support zero length messages and
because of that NX is currently returning a hard-coded hash for zero
length messages. However this approach is incorrect since the hash value
also depends on which key is used.

This patch removes the hard-coded hash and replace it with an
implementation based on the RFC 3566 using ECB.

# c849163b 12-Aug-2013 Marcelo Cerri <mhcerri@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

crypto: nx - fix concurrency issue

The NX driver uses the transformation context to store several fields
containing data related to the state of the operations in progress.
Since a single tfm can be used by different kernel threads at the same
time, we need to protect the data stored into the context.

This patch makes use of spin locks to protect the data where a race
condition can happen.
