staging/skein: Remove Skein and Threefish code

2018-07-02T07:00:42Z

It's been four years since this was added. In the interim, skein has not seen any mainstream adoption. Same with the threefish block cipher upon which it's based. In the discussion over which hash algorithm will replace SHA1 in git, it's not one of the contenders. There's absolutely no reason to think that there is anything wrong with Skein or Threefish. The only reason for this removal is a lack of adoption. If a real user comes forward, I'd be happy to assist with integrating this code into mainline.

Clean up file names and locations. Get rid of include/ directory and move those up to the top-level. Rename files to get rid of upper case. Remove skeinBlockNo3F.c as it was unused (temporary file or something?). Signed-off-by: Jake Edge Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

camelCase is not accepted in the Linux Kernel. To prepare skein driver for mainline inclusion, we rename all vars to non-camelCase equivalents. Signed-off-by: Anton Saraev Reviewed-by: Jake Edge Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
