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.

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.

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.

This patch updates the NX driver to perform several hyper calls when necessary
so that the length limits of scatter/gather lists are respected.

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.
