commit 97855e7f1ccf4917f305baab199edb9f2595ff5b upstream.
The hash implementation in crypto4xx has been disabled since 2009.
As nobody has tried to fix this remove all the dead code.

To: stable; +Cc: linux-crypto, Eric Biggers, Christian Lamparter, Herbert Xu
commit 7811ec9e973d2c9e465083699f0c8240b98cb8c4 upstream.
Remove crypto4xx_rng, as it is insecure and unused:
- It has only a 64-bit security strength, which is highly inadequate.
This can be seen by the fact that crypto4xx_hw_init() seeds it with
only 64 bits of entropy, and the fact that the original commit
mentions that it implements ANSI X9.17 Annex C.
Another issue was that this driver didn't implement the crypto_rng API
correctly, as crypto4xx_prng_generate() didn't return 0 on success.
- No user of this code is known. It's usable only theoretically via the
"rng" algorithm type of AF_ALG. But userspace actually just uses the
actual Linux RNG (/dev/random etc) instead. And rng_algs don't
contribute entropy to the actual Linux RNG either. (This may have
been confused with hwrng, which does contribute entropy.)
