Many users of kernel async. crypto services have a pattern of
starting an async. crypto op and than using a completion
to wait for it to end, resulting of the same code repeating
itself in multiple places, sometime with coding errors.

This patch aims to introduce a generic "wait for async.
crypto op to complete" functions and move all the users
I could find to use it.  This gets rid of almost 300
lines of code and uncovered a few bugs in existing code
(separate bug fix patch set sent previously).

The patch set was boot tested on x86_64 and arm64 which
at the very least tests the crypto users via testmgr
but I am less confident regarding some of the other
users and would love more testers.
 
Changes from v1:
- Address review comments from Eric Biggers.
- Separated out bug fixes of existing code and rebase
  on top of that patch set.
- Rename 'ecr' to 'wait' in fscrypto code.
- Split patch introducing the new API from the change
  moving over the algif code which it originated from
  to the new API.
- Inline crypto_wait_req().
- Some code indentation fixes.

Gilad Ben-Yossef (11):
  crypto: introduce crypto wait for async op
  crypto: move algif to generic async completion
  crypto: move pub key to generic async completion
  crypto: move drbg to generic async completion
  crypto: move gcm to generic async completion
  crypto: move testmgr to generic async completion
  dm: move dm-verity to generic async completion
  fscrypt: move to generic async completion
  cifs: move to generic async completion
  ima: move to generic async completion
  crypto: adapt api sample to use async. op wait
