Gvozden Neskovic 650383f283 [icp] fpu and asm cleanup for linux
Properly annotate functions and data section so that objtool does not complain
when CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION and CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER are enabled.

Pass KERNELCPPFLAGS to assembler.

Use kfpu_begin()/kfpu_end() to protect SIMD regions in Linux kernel.

Tom Caputi 0b04990a5d Illumos Crypto Port module added to enable native encryption in zfs
A port of the Illumos Crypto Framework to a Linux kernel module (found
in module/icp). This is needed to do the actual encryption work. We cannot
use the Linux kernel's built in crypto api because it is only exported to
GPL-licensed modules. Having the ICP also means the crypto code can run on
any of the other kernels under OpenZFS. I ended up porting over most of the
internals of the framework, which means that porting over other API calls (if
we need them) should be fairly easy. Specifically, I have ported over the API
functions related to encryption, digests, macs, and crypto templates. The ICP
is able to use assembly-accelerated encryption on amd64 machines and AES-NI
instructions on Intel chips that support it. There are place-holder
directories for similar assembly optimizations for other architectures
(although they have not been written).
