  This series fixes the RCU stalls triggered by the x86 crypto
modules discussed in
https://lore.kernel.org/all/MW5PR84MB18426EBBA3303770A8BC0BDFAB759@MW5PR84MB1842.NAMPRD84.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM/

Two root causes were:
- too much data processed between kernel_fpu_begin and
  kernel_fpu_end calls (which are heavily used by the x86
  optimized drivers)
- tcrypt not calling cond_resched during speed test loops

These problems have always been lurking, but improving the
loading of the x86/sha512 module led to it happening a lot
during boot when using SHA-512 for module signature checking.

Fixing these problems makes it safer to improve loading
the rest of the x86 modules like the sha512 module.

This series only handles the x86 modules.

Except for the tcrypt change, v3 only tackles the hash functions
as discussed in
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/MW5PR84MB184284FBED63E2D043C93A6FAB369@MW5PR84MB1842.NAMPRD84.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM/

The limits are implemented as static const unsigned ints at the
module level, which makes them easy to expose as module parameters
for testing like this:
   -static const unsigned int bytes_per_fpu = 655 * 1024;
   +static unsigned int bytes_per_fpu = 655 * 1024;
   +module_param(bytes_per_fpu, uint, 0644);
   +MODULE_PARM_DESC(bytes_per_fpu, "Bytes per FPU context");
