kmap_atomic() is used to create short-lived mappings of pages that may not be accessible via the kernel direct map. This is only needed on 32-bit architectures that implement CONFIG_HIGHMEM, but it can be used on 64-bit other architectures too, where the returned mapping is simply the kernel direct address of the page. However, kmap_atomic() does not support migration on CONFIG_HIGHMEM configurations, due to the use of per-CPU kmap slots, and so it disables preemption on all architectures, not just the 32-bit ones. This implies that all scatterwalk based crypto routines essentially execute with preemption disabled all the time, which is less than ideal. So let's switch scatterwalk_map/_unmap and the shash/ahash routines to kmap_local() instead, which serves a similar purpose, but without the resulting impact on preemption on architectures that have no need for CONFIG_HIGHMEM.
