The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN flag was apparently meant as a way to
make the ->setkey() functions provide more information about errors.
However, no one actually checks for this flag, which makes it pointless.
Also, many algorithms fail to set this flag when given a bad length key.
Reviewing just the generic implementations, this is the case for
aes-fixed-time, cbcmac, echainiv, nhpoly1305, pcrypt, rfc3686, rfc4309,
rfc7539, rfc7539esp, salsa20, seqiv, and xcbc. But there are probably
many more in arch/*/crypto/ and drivers/crypto/.
Some algorithms can even set this flag when the key is the correct
length. For example, authenc and authencesn set it when the key payload
is malformed in any way (not just a bad length), the atmel-sha and ccree
drivers can set it if a memory allocation fails, and the chelsio driver
sets it for bad auth tag lengths, not just bad key lengths.
So even if someone actually wanted to start checking this flag (which
seems unlikely, since it's been unused for a long time), there would be
a lot of work needed to get it working correctly. But it would probably
be much better to go back to the drawing board and just define different
return values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs.
-EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys".
That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test.
So just remove this flag.

In order to speed up aegis128 processing even more, duplicate the init()
and final() routines as SIMD versions in their entirety. This results
in a 2x speedup on ARM Cortex-A57 for ~1500 byte packets (using AES
instructions).

Instead of passing around an ops structure with function pointers,
which forces indirect calls to be used, refactor the code slightly
so we can use ordinary function calls. At the same time, switch to
a static key to decide whether or not the SIMD code path may be used.

This reverts commit ecc8bc81f2
("crypto: aegis128 - provide a SIMD implementation based on NEON
intrinsics") and commit 7cdc0ddbf7
("crypto: aegis128 - add support for SIMD acceleration").
They cause compile errors on platforms other than ARM because
the mechanism to selectively compile the SIMD code is broken.
