Subject: [PATCH 7/9] crypto: polyval - Remove the polyval crypto_shash

Remove polyval support from crypto_shash.  It no longer has any user now
that the HCTR2 code uses the POLYVAL library instead.

- * Code based on crypto/ghash-generic.c
- *
- * POLYVAL is a keyed hash function similar to GHASH. POLYVAL uses a different
- * modulus for finite field multiplication which makes hardware accelerated
- * implementations on little-endian machines faster. POLYVAL is used in the
- * kernel to implement HCTR2, but was originally specified for AES-GCM-SIV
- * (RFC 8452).
- *
- * For more information see:
- * Length-preserving encryption with HCTR2:
- *   https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/1441.pdf
- * AES-GCM-SIV: Nonce Misuse-Resistant Authenticated Encryption:
- *   https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8452
- *
- * Like GHASH, POLYVAL is not a cryptographic hash function and should
- * not be used outside of crypto modes explicitly designed to use POLYVAL.
- *
- * This implementation uses a convenient trick involving the GHASH and POLYVAL
- * fields. This trick allows multiplication in the POLYVAL field to be
- * implemented by using multiplication in the GHASH field as a subroutine. An
- * element of the POLYVAL field can be converted to an element of the GHASH
- * field by computing x*REVERSE(a), where REVERSE reverses the byte-ordering of
- * a. Similarly, an element of the GHASH field can be converted back to the
- * POLYVAL field by computing REVERSE(x^{-1}*a). For more information, see:
- * https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8452#appendix-A
- *
- * By using this trick, we do not need to implement the POLYVAL field for the
- * generic implementation.
- *
- * Warning: this generic implementation is not intended to be used in practice
- * and is not constant time. For practical use, a hardware accelerated
- * implementation of POLYVAL should be used instead.
- *
