Salvatore Benedetto 4e5f2c4007 crypto: kpp - Key-agreement Protocol Primitives API (KPP)
Add key-agreement protocol primitives (kpp) API which allows to
implement primitives required by protocols such as DH and ECDH.
The API is composed mainly by the following functions
 * set_secret() - It allows the user to set his secret, also
   referred to as his private key, along with the parameters
   known to both parties involved in the key-agreement session.
 * generate_public_key() - It generates the public key to be sent to
   the other counterpart involved in the key-agreement session. The
   function has to be called after set_params() and set_secret()
 * generate_secret() - It generates the shared secret for the session

Other functions such as init() and exit() are provided for allowing
cryptographic hardware to be inizialized properly before use

Herbert Xu 9aa867e465 crypto: user - Add CRYPTO_MSG_DELRNG
This patch adds a new crypto_user command that allows the admin to
delete the crypto system RNG.  Note that this can only be done if
the RNG is currently not in use.  The next time it is used a new
system RNG will be allocated.
