This removes a substantial chunk of code, and also gets rid of any indirect calls on architectures that obsess about those (x86) If this approach is deemed suitable, there are other places where we might consider adopting it: CRC32 and CRC32(C). Patch #1 does some preparatory refactoring and removes the library wrapper around the shash transform. Patch #2 introduces the actual static calls, along with the registration routines to update the crc-t10dif implementation at runtime. Patch #3 updates the generic CRC-T10DIF shash driver so it distinguishes between the optimized library code and the generic library code. Patches #4 to #7 update the various arch implementations to switch over to the new method. Special request to Peter to take a look at patch #2, and in particular, whether synchronize_rcu_tasks() is sufficient to ensure that a module providing the target of a static call can be unloaded safely.
