Simplify the code and eliminate per-encryption-op dynamic memory
allocations by switching from crypto_skcipher to crypto_sync_skcipher,
and from dynamic request allocation to SYNC_SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK.
Previously, this change would have made the x86 accelerated AES code no
longer be used, which would have been very bad. However, I fixed that
in 6.16. So we can make this simplification now.
This patchset applies to fscrypt/for-next. The base-commit (listed
below) can be found in next-20250708
Changed in v2:
- Added patches that remove the gfp_t argument from functions that no
longer need it.
- Eliminated the goto in derive_key_aes().
- Improved commit messages.
