Merge branch 'linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/herbert/crypto-2.6

Pull crypto updates from Herbert Xu:
 "Here is the crypto update for 4.8:

  API:
   - first part of skcipher low-level conversions
   - add KPP (Key-agreement Protocol Primitives) interface.

  Algorithms:
   - fix IPsec/cryptd reordering issues that affects aesni
   - RSA no longer does explicit leading zero removal
   - add SHA3
   - add DH
   - add ECDH
   - improve DRBG performance by not doing CTR by hand

  Drivers:
   - add x86 AVX2 multibuffer SHA256/512
   - add POWER8 optimised crc32c
   - add xts support to vmx
   - add DH support to qat
   - add RSA support to caam
   - add Layerscape support to caam
   - add SEC1 AEAD support to talitos
   - improve performance by chaining requests in marvell/cesa
   - add support for Araneus Alea I USB RNG
   - add support for Broadcom BCM5301 RNG
   - add support for Amlogic Meson RNG
   - add support Broadcom NSP SoC RNG"
