I'd do this first, as one set.  Adding a new file to crypto is
unlikely to cause merge conflicts.

I'm confused, I thought you had agreed to the batched chacha20
approach?

This is cleanup, so it doesn't matter that much when it happens.  md5
changes to crypto is also unlikely to cause conflicts, so we could do
this at the same time as (2), if Herbert (the crypto maintainer) agrees.

This is definitely separate.

One more thing.  Can you add some test cases to lib/siphash.h?
Triggered off of a CONFIG_SIPHASH_REGRESSION_TEST config flag, with
some test inputs and known outputs?  I'm going to need to add a
version of siphash to e2fsprogs, and I want to make sure the userspace
version is implementing the same algorithm as the kernel siphash.
