	Remove dead code related to internal IV generators, which are no longer used since they've been replaced with the "seqiv" and "echainiv" templates. The removed code includes: - The "givcipher" (GIVCIPHER) algorithm type. No algorithms are registered with this type anymore, so it's unneeded. - The "const char *geniv" member of aead_alg, ablkcipher_alg, and blkcipher_alg. A few algorithms still set this, but it isn't used anymore except to show via /proc/crypto and CRYPTO_MSG_GETALG. Just hardcode "<default>" or "<none>" in those cases. - The 'skcipher_givcrypt_request' structure, which is never used.

2016-12-13	crypto: doc - convert crypto API documentation to Sphinx	Stephan Mueller	1	-0/+24
	With the conversion of the kernel crypto API DocBook to Sphinx, the monolithic document is broken up into individual documents. The documentation is unchanged with the exception of a slight reordering to keep the individual document parts self-contained.
