commit f9e2bca6c22d75a289a349f869701214d63b5060
aka "crypto: sha512 - Move message schedule W[80] to static percpu area"
created global message schedule area.

If sha512_update will ever be entered twice, hilarity ensures.

Probably the easiest way to notice incorrect hashes being calculated is
to run 2 ping floods over AH with hmac(sha512):

	#!/usr/sbin/setkey -f
	flush;
	spdflush;
	add IP1 IP2 ah 25 -A hmac-sha512 0x00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000025;
	add IP2 IP1 ah 52 -A hmac-sha512 0x00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000052;
	spdadd IP1 IP2 any -P out ipsec ah/transport//require;
	spdadd IP2 IP1 any -P in  ipsec ah/transport//require;

XfrmInStateProtoError will start ticking with -EBADMSG being returned
from ah_input(). This never happens with, say, hmac(sha1).

I personally don't understand this changelog entry:

	"The message schedule W (u64[80]) is too big for the stack."

Hash context is dynamically allocated.

W[80] stack usage can be trimmed like in SHA-1, this is for separate patch.

P. S.: If only one ping flood runs, XfrmInStateProtoError will also tick
	but very slowly. I personally can't explain this.

With patch applied (on BOTH sides), XfrmInStateProtoError does not tick
with multiple bidirectional ping flood streams like it doesn't tick
with SHA-1.
