crypto: testmgr - test the !may_use_simd() fallback code
All crypto API algorithms are supposed to support the case where they
are called in a context where SIMD instructions are unusable, e.g. IRQ
context on some architectures. However, this isn't tested for by the
self-tests, causing bugs to go undetected.
Now that all algorithms have been converted to use crypto_simd_usable(),
update the self-tests to test the no-SIMD case. First, a bool
testvec_config::nosimd is added. When set, the crypto operation is
executed with preemption disabled and with crypto_simd_usable() mocked
out to return false on the current CPU.
A bool test_sg_division::nosimd is also added. For hash algorithms it's
honored by the corresponding ->update(). By setting just a subset of
these bools, the case where some ->update()s are done in SIMD context
and some are done in no-SIMD context is also tested.
These bools are then randomly set by generate_random_testvec_config().
For now, all no-SIMD testing is limited to the extra crypto self-tests,
because it might be a bit too invasive for the regular self-tests.
But this could be changed later.
This has already found bugs in the arm64 AES-GCM and ChaCha algorithms.
This would have found some past bugs as well.
